GERMAN wine tasting

september 15 & 16

Our newest wine class iteration is designed to increase your regional wine knowledge- this time were are headed to Germany. Travail’s sommelier Dave Brown and Amy Waller, the Midwest portfolio manager for the German Wine Collective curated an experience that will go over a variety of wines but we will cover the complicated, beautiful, and often misunderstood wine that is known as Riesling. Dave put a list together of wines and tapped into Amy’s wealth of knowledge about Germany to come up with a menu. The menu features some non-German fare that just pairs so well and we’re also tapping into some new German fare with regional references.

Our culinary team is now prototyping the dishes and getting ready for another evening of learning, sipping and eating. Dave will lead this class with Amy as a special guest for both nights. The ultimate goal of the experience is for you to leave with a new appreciation of German wine, to perhaps not poo-poo a Riesling and to feel a little more empowered when you’re walking by the “Germany” section of your favorite retailer. 

All levels of wine knowledge are warmly welcomed.
