Join us for an evening in the hills of northern Italy as we explore the celebrated wines of Piedmont—a region known for elegant reds, vibrant whites, and deep winemaking traditions. Guests will enjoy a guided tasting featuring a curated selection of wines from some of Piedmont’s most iconic appellations, including Barolo, Barbaresco, Dolcetto, Barbera, and Arneis. Throughout the evening, we’ll discuss the region’s unique terroir, grape varieties, and winemaking styles while pairing the wines with light Italian and fall-inspired bites prepared by Baker's Best Catering. Note: A $25 wine fee is payable in class. Limited to 29.
