Post Holiday Bargains: No Need To Give Up Wine
Plum Market See all classes by this school @ 1233 N Wells St, Chicago, IL
Of course we’re still drinking good wine after the holiday frenzy has died down! The question is, what to open? Over the last couple months we’ve been pulling out special (pricey…) bottles with abandon, figuring now’s the time to share, not hoard, The Best. But truth be told, there are plenty of modest wines that deliver pleasure, complexity, and terroir, too. We’ll showcase authentic steals from around the globe – southern Italy...

Louis/Dressner Imports - Extreme Terroir
Plum Market See all classes by this school @ 1233 N Wells St, Chicago, IL
Louis/Dressner Selections is an importing company founded in the 1990’s by the late, great Joe Dressner and his wife Denyse Louis. Joe and Denyse were visionaries, never interested in scores, never interested in wines with “gobs of fruit,” and never interested in highly paid wine consultants. They were passionate about low-impact, organic farming methods which produce elegant wines, especially from the Loire Valley and Beaujolais. Dressner...

Our very own Madeline Triffon, America’s first female Master Sommelier, will share some of her vast knowledge and abundant charm to help us learn to answer the perennial question: what should I drink with this food? Most restaurant and event menus are inspired by multiple ethnic and stylistic influences. Do we have the skills to harmonize today’s food with wine? Are classic pairing principle still applicable?

Blind Tasting Fun
Plum Market See all classes by this school @ 1233 N Wells St, Chicago, IL
It’s almost back to school time, so let’s dust off our practice, knowledge and intuition! Just for fun, we’ll put out an assortment of beautiful red and white wines, concealing their identities, and see who can deduce their type or grape variety. The wines will be very expressive examples and we’ll provide plenty of clues, with descriptions of what is typical of the wines being poured. It’ll be up to you to figure out which is which!...

Classics Of Spain

Magical Roussillon
Plum Market See all classes by this school @ 1233 N Wells St, Chicago, IL
One of these days, France will give Roussillon the recognition it deserves, and elevate it from its current status as an appendage to Languedoc. Once known only for sweet fortified wines made from Muscat and Grenache, this region’s dry reds and whites are very worthy of your attention. The arid, mountainous terrain, with its thin, poor, rocky soils, is planted to vine varieties similar to those of the Southern Rhone, and the wines are usually...

Majestic Nebbiolo: Elegance, Power And Longevity
Plum Market See all classes by this school @ 1233 N Wells St, Chicago, IL
“If Pinot Noir is the world's most tantalizing grape, Nebbiolo runs it a close second.” – Jancis Robinson Unlike Pinot Noir, Nebbiolo has not established itself anywhere in the world outside of Piemonte and Lombardy in Northwest Italy, its home since the 14th century. Here we will find the most famous regions, Barbaresco and Barolo, and lesser-known areas which also produce compelling examples, such as Gattinara and Valtellina. Some great...
