The World's Top Wine Grapes Uncorked: Next Level Wine Course

Join Advanced Sommelier Mary Ross in this Next Level wine course, and learn how soil, climate and human culture create a rainbow of flavor that is wine.  Wine-friendly noshes including Baked Brie en Croute will be served to test the “rules” of wine and food.
