Rochester Community House

Join us as you delight your palette with the power wines: Sauvignon Blanc and Syrah. Discover which "Game Wines" will enhance the art of pairing wines with food.

The Power Wines

Around the world we go looking for the best expression of Sauvignon Blanc and Syrah! Loire Valley vs. New Zealand/California vs. Australia. Market research is showing these two are the most popular wines right now. We will taste these wines from different parts of the globe and decide for ourselves whether these varietals are up to par!

Game Wine Tasting

Do you know a hunter? This class will focus on pairing wines to game. Discover the big bold wines that can stand up to big bold tastes of game meat. These wines will knock your socks off with flavors that really pack a wallop. Grenache is known for its peppery, earthy style, Syrah for its meaty, bacon nose. Pinot Noir for blueberry flavorts that pair really well with certain fowl. We will also throw in a couple whites for starters and fun!
