So you love rosé? Or you think you might love Rosé but not sure about it? Or have you just overlooked rosé because of how “girly” is considered to be?

Join me for a fun class where we will dive into the hidden side of rosé - away from the stereotypes and pink-prejudice and into an incredible line-up that will surprise you and blow away your palates! During this class we will taste five different rosé wines from five different regions around the world - all made from different grape varieties and in different styles, all done by applying conscious farming practices like organic and biodynamic approaches. We will start with a beautiful pét-nat rosé and then continue our tasting through different styles - from very light blush style, all the way to fuller and darker styles that are nearly reds! I am really looking forward to share these wines and expand your palates and awareness of what is possible in the wold of rosé.

What is included:

-tasting of 5 different wines

-cheese and charcuterie boards

-two hours of in-depth education on wines in a small-group setting

-an unlimited amount of fun!

Each class accommodates 16 people so space is limited.

This class series will take place at Zero Zero natural wine bar.

To honor our hosts Zero Zero wine bar and to introduce you to another style of natural wine we decided to create a session dedicated to purely “zero zero” wines: wines made with no added sulphur. In the natural wine community it is generally accepted that wine should have very low to no amounts of added sulphur. Now as much as this is up for debate, we want to give you an experience of tasting through five zero-zero wines yourself. These wines often exude a vibrancy and energy as well as having the ability to evolve in remarkable ways that you might have not experienced in other wines. Come taste them for yourself and see what the hype is about!

We all know about champagne, but what on earth is a Pét-Nat (and how is it even pronounced)? All of these questions and more will be covered in this fun tasting session where we will unveil the unknown and dive deeper in history and production of Pét-Nat (short for Pétillant naturel) as well as talk about other styles of natural sparkling wines that you might come across when shopping for bubbly. We will taste through five different bubbles and cover an array of styles and hopefully find some new favorites for you!

It may look like a glass of orange juice, but orange (also known as skin-contact or amber) wine is about as far as possible from being a sugary drink. Orange wine is a style of winemaking that has been made for thousands of years, yet it has only recently made its resurgence and find a place on the shelves of so many natural wine bars and stores. Orange wines by their nature of production often overlap with the natural wine world, but it’s important to be aware that not every orange wine is a natural wine. In this class we will learn all the history and behind-the-scenes of making these wines and exploring different styles of orange wines through our tasting.

Natural, organic, biodynamic, sustainable, dry-farmed, zero-sulfur, vegan… the world of wine can often be really confusing! We break down all the mysteries around these loosely described concepts and talk about what natural wine really is and isn’t so that you will be confident in your knowledge of natural wine and know what you really enjoy. We will taste five different natural wines made in different styles and establish a strong foundation for your curious palate.
