The Information, techniques, and experience you need to choose fine wines.
presented by Robert L. Cunningham

This series of tastings will introduce you to a number of highly rated and in some cases rare and aged wines, as well as give you a broad base of information and experience necessary to choose and pair wines intelligently.

We will explore the techniques and vocabulary of wine tasting, the vast differences in the world’s great red and white varietals and how those differences affect the foods with which wines are paired.

Robert Cunningham has more than a decade of experience in teaching wine tasting seminars  and us a wine buyer for a restaurant. He is a frequent guest speaker at The Wine Workshop tasting seminars in New York and at the De Vinimus Society at Columbia University.
