OKLA. CITY —
Platt’s guests on Wednesday will discover why we love Merlot. Attendees will practice tasting by breaking down the elementary components in the wine and examining the contrasting elements in the wine’s relation to food. Through the course of the class they will learn how to smell and taste wine and learn a little about wine and food pairing.
Wine tasting classes are scheduled at the Culinary Institute of Platt College to fit everyone’s busy life style. Small class sizes provide guests more one-on-one time with Certified Wine Specialist Clayton Bahr.
The wine tasting is limited to 20 guests and will be in Chefs di Domani’s restaurant at the Culinary Institute of Platt College, 2727 W. Memorial Road. The tasting will last about one hour and will include light hors d’oeuvres.
All classes are reserved by a credit card pre-payment of $35 per person. To make reservations, contact Michelle Whitford at whitford@plattcollege.org or 405-550-8868. Visit www.plattcollege.org for updates of its“Wine Tasting” series. Payment will need to be made upon making the reservation. Payment will confirm a reservation.
