Private Wine Class for 6 with Desta Klein at Meritage!

All of the world compares their wine to French wine. Why does French wine set the standard? What are the standards? This class with Desta will teach you about Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Burgundy, the sensuality of the Loire, Syrah and the Rhône, and introduce you to Bordeaux and the entire concept of "Vin du Vignes vs. Vin du Cave."

Scheduling based on availability. Please plan to schedule within one year. Un grand merci à Desta Klein et Meritage !

Enjoy a private wine tasting and class in the Médoc Room of Meritage Restaurant in Saint Paul with Desta Klein. Learn about human history & wine, fortified wines, and delve into why French wines are so special.

Wine has been with humanity since at least 3200 B.C., where we can find documented carafes or qvevri from the cradle of civilization, moving with us through history. Taste some of the historic wines of Georgia & the Middle East. See the resulting counterparts of modern wines for comparison.

Fortified wines were made to travel-that is their entire purpose. Learn the why, the how, and the oh-my-gosh. A rare tasting opportunity for dessert wines, botrytis wines, Porto, Madeira, and even late harvest/ice wine.
