We offer two tasting opportunities every week in addition to our classes and special event offerings. Looking for a more immersive tasting experience? Join us on Wednesdays! Want a little education and more social time with friends and neighbors? Join us on Saturdays!
Wednesdays: 6pm (Structured Tasting)
Our Wine Wednesday EDUtastings offer a guided and curated tasting experience of 4 wines with one of our wine educators. These tastings generally last 30-45 minutes and include in-depth discussion on the region, history, pairing ideas and the story behind the label. Reservations are required. Please arrive promptly at 6pm. Wednesday tastings are $20 per person. As always, Crystal Palate Club Members receive complimentary tastings for 2 each week. RSVP.
Saturdays: 4pm-5pm (Open-House Style)
Our Social Saturday Tastings offer a casual tasting of 4 wines (Somm's Choice) with a primary focus on value-driven bottles under $30. This is an open-house style tasting experience. Reservations are required. Arrive anytime between 4pm-5pm to begin your tasting. This is a great way to connect with friends and neighbors after a long week. RSVP.
