LY161 Wine & Cheese Tasting

The cheese board is a staple of any French meal! The French are as serious about cheeses as they are about wines. Did you know that there are more than 1200 different French cheeses? This special wine event will be dedicated to the world of French cheese including its classification, the regional differences (terroir, seasonality ...) and cheese-making techniques. We will also discuss how to put together a cheese board for your meal and which wines to serve with them.

This dinner session will include the tasting of 8 different cheeses & 4 white wines from different wine regions.  Champagne will be served as aperitif.
