Lift his tail to open his mouth when it's pressed down again, the nut is cracked! This charming character is eager to please and prefers to share his nuts rather than bury them in the yard!

Wine 101: An Introduction
Tuesday, November 11th
7:00 - 9:00pm
Our Price: $20/person
Do you read Wine for Dummies late at night off in a dark corner? Do you want to try Merlot, but you're afraid to ask? If so, this seminar is for you! Join us at Sun Singer as we de-mystify the world of wine. Wine 101 will introduce you to the everyday pleasures of wine.
We'll be covering basic wine varieties and their characteristics, along with how to taste and talk about wine. We'll cover some of the basic wine terminology and flavor components of wine. We'll also talk about 'when wine goes bad.' After this introduction you'll feel more comfortable with the 'language' of wine, ordering wine in a restaurant and how to explain what you want from a wine when choosing one in the store. With any luck you'll be on the road to a lifetime of enjoyment in a world of wine!
Learn more about our seminars here.
