You may have noticed Jean K. Reilly‘s name pop up on the blog a few times. She’s Central Florida’s only Master of Wine – that’s one of the highest certifications you can get in the field of wine knowledge.
She teaches WSET certification classes around town, but those can be a little pricey and time intensive for the purely recreational wine lover.
This week, Central Floridians have not one but two opportunities to soak in a little of Jean’s knowledge for a fraction of the time and money!
- Monday, Jean will lead a tasting and class on chardonnays and merlots from around the world at the Rosen School of Hospitality Wine Lab, sponsored by Central Florida Women for Winesense.
- Thursday, she’ll lead an exploration of sparkling wines at Swirlery Wine Bar.
This week, you also have a couple of chances to try wines from little-known (and almost completely unknown) wine regions.
- Monday’s “Poutine Palooza” celebration of Canada’s Victoria Day at K Wine Bar includes a tasting of wines from north of the border.
- Thursday, Tim’s Wine Market Lake Mary-Sanford will hold a tasting of wines from Connecticut’s Sharpe Hill Winery.
Get details for these and many other wine happenings on the Events Page. Cheers!
