Public25: West Coast Pairing Luncheon SOLD OUT

Discover the art of wine and food pairing “against the grain” with Evan Goldstein MS, author of Perfect Pairings: A Master Sommelier’s Practical Advice for Partnering Wine with Food. Evan will demonstrate how to match two seemingly different wines with the same food over a three-course lunch, each course paired with two wines – a Chardonnay and a Pinot Noir from the Left Coast of North America.
