Discover your inner oenophile through this entertaining and educational series. Each month, the series will present a new French wine or brandy, focusing on their distinctive and essential characteristics.

Learn all there is about the finest sparkling wine in the world: how the wine is made, where the wine is made, and what makes it unique in the world of sparklers. This session will present the variety of the region, sampling rosé, non-vintage, vintage, and prestige cuvée Champagnes.

Richard Luftig, Wine Director of New York’s Cookshop in Chelsea will lead the class.
