Enjoy a Fun and Educational Wine Tasting Class in Portland and Learn Wine Basics, Wine & Food Pairing or Blend Your Own Award-Winning Cuvee

Looking to learn more about wine? This is your chance to learn the basics and have a great time. You can choose from one of three specialized vino classes:

Blend Your Own
In this class you will learn about grape varieties, how to taste wine, what structural and flavor components of a wine are important in blending, why winemakers blend wine and what some labels mean. You will then have the opportunity to create your very own award-winning cuvee, i.e., a bottle or carafe of custom wine you get to take home.

Beyond the Cork (aka Wine 101)
Explore the history of wine, where it is grown, the main varieties, how wine is made, and why Oregon is suited for wine-grape growing. Comparisons of New World wines (North and South America, Australia, New Zealand) and Old World wines (France, Italy, Spain, Germany) will be presented along with proper wine tasting techniques and characteristics of some of the best known wines. Finally, you will learn how to how to pair wine with food and the keys to purchasing wine.

Bites & Flights
Love Pinot noir but don't know what food it goes with? Confused about why you like red wine with salmon? (Isn't it supposed to be white wine with fish?) This class will teach you about the basics of food pairing featuring a selection of wines from Bishop Creek Cellars, Eastern Washington and around the world. You will also enjoy taste tempting bites that beautifully complement the flights.

Every Experience Gift is beautifully presented in our unique Xperience Days Gift Box.
