Wine 101: The Basics (A Wine Education Happy Hour, presented by Book + Bottle)

  • Book + Bottle 17 6th Street North St. Petersburg, FL, 33701 United States (map)

Check off your first new year’s resolution by learning a new skill - wine tasting! Join us for a safe, socially-distanced, and guided wine tasting where we’ll cover the very essentials of wine, and start you on the path to becoming a wine pro!

We’ll cover the basic steps for tasting wine, how wine is made, the major wine regions of the world, and some core terminology so you can start 2021 as a wine pro! We’ll be tasting a line up of yummy wines, too, to help introduce you to some of the major concepts.

Please arrive early, beginning at 6:30PM. Class will begin promptly at 7PM.

What you can expect:

  • Space between you and our other guests. Each person/ couple will have their own table. We're keeping tickets to a minimum to promote safety, health, and optimal conversation.

  • A line up of wines to introduce you to the major types of wine and wine concepts!

  • A handout with information on each wine with room for you to take notes

  • Palate cleanser snacks

  • A guided tasting by Book + Bottle's wine experts

  • You can add on a gorgeous charcuterie box from Gather Round and Graze for an additional $15 that is perfect for two people to snack on or one person to fill their belly
