Crash Course: South American Showdown March 11, 2009

Get your learn on!

Crash Course Wine Seminars are back for the New Year and they’re better than ever. Last night’s Booze History: Cabernet 101 was a huge hit, but if you missed it, not to worry because we have a whole new slew of courses coming up designed to turn you and your friends into wine badasses.

As usual, our goal is to empower you, the drinker, with more knowledge about wine by way of expert education and tasty sips. We are working with the top names in wine that Boston has to offer to bring and fun, informative and most importantly, completely unpretentious wine class. All Crash Courses are $15 (or two for $20) and include 4-6 different wines and a whole lot of expert knowledge.

It’s a battle of the big, bold, bad-boys from South America! Taste Argentine Malbec, the reigning champion of Southern Hemisphere juiciness side by side with Chile’s rising star, Carmenere. See Argentine Cabernet face up against the Chilean powerhouse. Before the main event, see the little known underdog, but heavy hitting Torrontes from Mendoza square up against Chile’s internationally successful Sauvignon Blanc. Be there!
