This program includes a wine tasting kit as part of its ticket price that must be picked up from a local Washington, DC wine bar. Spend a fascinating evening expanding your knowledge of wine as you travel the world with sommelier Erik Segelbaum in a series of delectable wine-tasting adventures. The immersive program includes a curated personal tasting kit to enhance the experience. Austria has a long and storied history of producing extraordinary, high-acid, and fresh wines. Whether it's bone-dry Rieslings or Austria's heritage grape, Grüner Veltliner, its whites are guaranteed palate pleasers and are exceptionally food-friendly. But Austria has so much more to offer. Native reds like Blaufrânkish (Lemberger), Zweigel, and St. Laurent shine brightly, as do international varieties like Pinot Noir (Spâtburgunder). This delightful session will have you drinking like a sommelier in no time. Wine Tasting Kit Information The cost includes a curated personal tasting kit with enough wine for one person to sample the full lineup of wines. Additional participants must register individually to receive their own tasting kit, which is an essential component of the workshop.
