Fortified wines (Port, Sherry & Madeira) might be better known as fortifying wines; since that is their purpose and their effect. They historically are thought of as making us better able to face the cold, cruel world out there. That having been said, they are also great values, greatly under-appreciated and loads of fun! Host Jamie Koren will take us through an array of wonderful selections, ranging from the most elegant of dry Manzanilla to the majesty of old Madeira. This is a once-a-year, not-to-be-missed event that usually sells out quickly. Sign up early for this fantastic class!
