Seminar 1
"The Language of Wine"
Ever wonder what 'tannic', "flinty" or "petrol" mean when referring to wine? These words are frequently used in descriptions and cause confusion to the major population. Join renowned certified wine educator, Michael Schaeffer and wine writer for the Scranton Times, David Falchek as they talk about how the descriptions written in wine reviews don't always clearly describe what the wine is about. You will taste a flight of wine to illustrate what the wine brings to the nose and palate. This seminar makes it easy for a novice to understand terms and rate wine like an expert!
