Drink Seminar: Blind Tasting Like a Sommelier

Event Description

Blind tasting is one of the most glamourized and astonishing skills in wine. It can feel almost impossible that by smell and taste alone, a trained sommelier can place a wine on the world map and potentially even the year in which it was grown. Join Jason Yamasaki, Best Sommelier of BC and two-time competitor at the Best Sommelier of Canada, for an interactive and instructive tasting that takes you inside the mind of a professional sommelier and reveals how wine experts train to recognize origin, variety, style, and quality in the glass. You will walk away with a new way to taste wine and a little bit of sommelier instinct installed in your own palate.
