Discover Your Wine Style @ Culinary Arts & Hospitality Management Institute in Little Rock
Apr 25 @ 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm

There are over 10,000 possible flavors in wine. There are over 500 bottles in the average wine shop. When you pick up a bottle of wine, do you know if you are really going to like it? Have you bought an expensive bottle only to be disappointed? If so, you are not alone. This is an issue that has plagued wine lovers for centuries. Each and every one of us has ever so slightly different sense of taste, which means that not all wines are going to appeal to all people.

Join Wine Educator Lorri Hambuchen on an exploration to enjoy wine to the fullest.  You don’t need to know every single wine style in the world. You don’t need to memorize every wine grape and every wine region. All you really need to start your journey into knowing YOUR wine style.
