Understanding Food & Wine Pairing Concepts
June 13, 2024
7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Vine Arts Edmonton
Food & Wine pairing goes way beyond white with fish or red with steak. Understanding the chemistry and logic behind the interactions between food and wine pairings can unlock flavours that take your dining experience to the next level and help you avoid disasters! In this tasting, we will dive into key concepts and understand why they work or why they don't, exploring traditional and non-traditional pairings. At the end of the tasting you'll leave with the confidence to plan your next dinner party!
The Wines of Summer!
June 14, 2024
6:00 pm - 7:30 pm
Vine Arts Calgary - 17th Ave
With the arrival of warmer temperatures and longer days we’re craving thirst-quenching wines with oodles of freshness. You know, patio wines that aren’t afraid of a little barbecue. From crushable Lambrusco to picnic-ready Beaujolais Crus, join us for a lineup of our favourite summer sippers!
BLANCO, WEISS, BÍLÉ, FEHÉR, BRANCO! June 15, 2024
3:00 pm - 4:30 pm
Vine Arts Calgary - 17th Ave
White Wine is an astonishingly diverse category ranging from crystalline, taut, and linear to voluminous, tender, and toothsome. I equate them to a solo performance: easy to mess up, and you have nothing to hide behind. In this tasting, we'll explore the style's full breadth. Join Erik Mercier from Juice Imports for an afternoon of science, craft, and storytelling as you wind through six white (ish) wines from around the world.
