Join us for a captivating two-night wine experience that will indulge your senses and elevate your appreciation for wine.
**Friday Night: The Nose Knows Aroma Seminar**
Embark on a self-guided, interactive, olfactory exploration of the senses led by Scott Thomas, the founder of Grappolo Food & Wine School. Learn how our sense of smell contributes to 80% of wine perceptions and discover the art of identifying over 1000 aromas through practice. Engage in a "blind smell" challenge with over 50 common aromatic components found in wine. As we delve into the world of wine, Scott Thomas, a Certified Wine Educator and Italian Wine Ambassador, will guide us through understanding primary, secondary, and tertiary aromas. This fun seminar includes tasting wines that highlight similar characteristics, allowing us to "close the loop" and train our brains to appreciate the nuances in each bottle.
**Saturday Night: Winter Wine Grand Tasting**
Experience the grandeur of Warren Station's Winter Wine Grand Tasting, featuring wines from multiple wineries. Sip and savor premium choice wines in the ballroom while enjoying the soulful sounds of Shanaynay & Co., a local band delivering angelic vocals, bluesy keys, and pulsing percussion. Let the music set the mood as you sashay and shimmy around, sampling an array of wines ranging from smooth and creamy whites to big, bold reds. Complement your wine journey with complimentary Swiss chocolates and hand-crafted cheese samples. This enchanting evening promises to be a celebration of wine, music, and indulgence.
