Immersions
Immersions is a program of wine classes where a real sense of place and culture are explored through the glass. Tastings are practical and intimate, where history, geography and the culture of a region are all revealed. I set the stage with maps, booklets, placemats and a light antipasto spread prepared by a local Italian chef.
