CANCELED - Tasting Seminar: Sherry

While more popular than ever, Sherry is still very much a mystical thing. This fortified wine ranges from a relatively light, perfect-as-an-aperitif “fino" to a viscous, sweet Pedro Ximenez -- with a whole of food friendliness in between. In this 2-hour tasting and seminar, you will taste six styles while exploring their history and production. You will leave understanding why Sherry -- a long-neglected wine -- is now suddenly cool.
