This class is tailored for wine enthusiasts who may already grasp the basics of wine but wish to better understand its principles to build a stronger foundation for enjoyment, appreciation, and optimizing the overall wine experience. Jessi Blanarik, certified sommelier and columnist for Centre County Gazette’s “Sip with a Sommelier”, along with Chef Duke Gastiger, co-owner of RE Farm Café, will lead our journey in an accessible and engaging way, exploring the culture, history, viticulture, and winemaking methods behind the best and most influential wine regions in the world.
