We eat and drink every day, but how often do we truly taste? In this Meetup Live event, we’ll be delving into a world of flavor with a lesson on wine tasting!

Grab a bottle of something fun and join Mandy Naglich, Advanced Cicerone® and author of [How to Taste](http://howtotastebook.com), as she demonstrates a tasting method designed to help you get the most out of what you’re imbibing. Learn how to engage the five senses when you sniff, swirl, and sip your wine—even if it’s non-alcoholic. Get the lowdown on terms like mouthfeel, terroir, and tannins so you can choose your next vintage with the confidence of a pro! Be sure to stay for the Q&A.
