From Douro, With Love: A Port Tasting Experience | November 3rd | 6:00-7:30 p.m.

Instructor: Kaleigh Swift

Class type: Take Notes! | These are our classic "lecture-styled" classes, where you're given lots of in-depth information by a knowledgeable instructor. Anyone is welcome to attend, but these classes are geared toward folks with more than a passing interest in the subject.

WHAT YOU'LL GET IN THIS CLASS:

• A deep-dive, instructor-led tasting.
• A welcome cocktail.
• A flight of ports from in a range of styles.
  
• Light fare to snack on.
• Special pricing on all featured beverages.
• Some lasting memories!

Join our port enthusiast and Lusophile, Kaleigh Swift, as she explores the history, culture, and creation of port wine. Originally created as a workaround to a French embargo on exporting wines to England, this popular class of fortified wine is so much more than just a saccharine dessert wine and deserves to be savored on its own. We'll go over how port is made and its surprisingly varied styles. Whether you're new to port, have only had it at Christmas time with Stilton, or are a distinguished member of the Port Wine Brotherhood (yes, such an organization exists), this class has a port wine for you! Attendees will enjoy a catered selection of small bites in addition to special pricing on all ports.
