Sweet & Fortified Wines Masterclass
November 13, 2025 6:30 PM –8:30 PM
Overview
Join us on Thursday, November 13th at 6:30pm for an eye-opening journey through the lush, complex, and often misunderstood world of sweet and fortified wines. Whether you're a seasoned fan or still wary of anything with residual sugar, this class is for you.
In this class, we’ll explore five different wines from iconic categories like Port, Madeira, Muscat, late harvest styles and more! As we taste, we’ll unpack how our brains and palates sometimes trick us when sensing sweetness and dispel some common myths. You’ll leave with a deeper appreciation of these wines' craftsmanship, versatility, and timeless appeal.
Your ticket includes:
A guided tasting of 5 wines
An educational lecture and lively discussion
Printed tasting materials for notes and pairing ideas
Palate cleansers (yes, that means bread and butter!)
Optional food pre-order to enjoy during class
And of course, a well-earned sense of accomplishment
