Riedel Wine Glass Seminars
What is it?
Join Riedel & Denver Food + Wine Festival for an educational and entertaining program that will change your wine life forever! In a unique and fascinating wine tasting, sommelier Shelley Sale will demonstrate the relationship between the shape of a wine glass and our perception and enjoyment of the wine within. Experience first-hand the effect that the shape of a wine glass has on each unique varietal, and how stemware translates and delivers the bouquet, taste, balance, and finish of a wine to the senses. After the seminar, you will take home your own 4 four-glass Riedel kit, valued at $138, with one glass for each varietal.
