Learn to craft ideal food and wine pairings by mastering the fundamental principles of how sweet, sour, bitter, and salty elements interact with wine characteristics.
Do established pairing guidelines leave you confused, or do you struggle with selecting appropriate wine combinations? This course breaks down essential food pairing theory and demonstrates how different wine styles engage with primary flavor components. You will taste numerous combinations, examine their impact on your palate, and discuss experiences with fellow students. By the end of the session, you will understand your own preferences and feel empowered to make confident pairing selections.
Course Focus: This class emphasizes wine structure and flavor interactions and does not include food tastings.
