Taste a large selection of top Pinot Produces and we throw in a KISS of Chardonnay to this event…. All wines are tasted 3 at a time - one will be Santa Rita Hills - one Oregon and one Sonoma (but which is which? and more important - which do you prefer?) This is a fun way to learn, learn to smell and detect the character of a place, learn what you like and dislike - Served with a petite cheese plate!
