Registration: 203-259-4692 or harrys@sent.net
All classes are 7pm to 9pm
Wine 101: Intro to Wine Tasting Wednesdays Oct 1 and Oct 8
This is the most popular class at Harry’s Wine School. We offer it
several times per year, always to a packed house! We will cover everything you need to know
about the basics of wine but didn’t know what to ask. You will learn the 5 S’s
of wine tasting, the 4 taste zones of the tongue, the basic grape varieties,
and much more. A selection of wines from around the world will be tasted. This class is the foundation of all the other
classes in our curriculum, and we recommend that even long-time tasters will
benefit from it. The concepts and techniques that you learn here will apply to
any and all future wine tastings that you will ever attend. $50 for both
weeks
The Bichot Wines of
Burgundy Wednesday Oct
15
Presented by
Guillaume Suss, East Coast Sales Manager
Albert Bichot owns four estates set at the heart of four
great viticultural regions that make up Burgundy: Chablis, Côte de Nuits, Côte
de Beaune, and Côte Chalonnaise. Each estate consists of vineyards cultivated
with sustainable practices, as well as facilities and teams devoted to the
making and ageing of the region’s wines.
Each year this estate has consistently produced burgundy wines of very
high quality, and our event this evening will be your opportunity to sample a
selection. Guillaume Suss will provide
an entertaining and informative portrait of a true burgundian producer as he
tastes us through these wines. $35 one
session
Food and Wine of Germany and Austria Wednesday Oct 22
It is time once again for Chef Chris of the Fairfield Cheese
Company to work his magic with a meal of several different courses each to be
paired with the perfectly matched wine.
Germany and Austria produce a variety of great food wines. The Rieslings of Germany have been wonderful
for centuries on the dinner table, and within the last decade or so the Gruner
Veltliner grape of Austria has become the dinner darling of many of today’s top
sommeliers. These two wines and several
others will be on the menu this evening.
We’ve done these dinners with Chris before, and we know one thing for
sure – You Snooze, You Lose! $40 one session
Wines of
Spain Wednesday Oct 29
Spain is firmly in place as one of the premier wine producing
countries. Both top quality and value
wines are being produced from border to border, and this class will introduce
you to many of them. We will travel far
and wide to sample a variety of wines and grapes with different flavors and
styles. After tasting these wines you will
be able to determine your favorites as well as become quite knowledgeable about
them in general. $35 one session
