Varietal Instincts: A Wine Tasting Series | Class 3: Pop Quiz
Same grape. Surprising secrets. Serious bubbles. This three-part tasting series with introductory sommelier Damian Guzman explores wine from three irresistible angles—varietal comparison, sommelier-worthy value finds, and a sparkling finale. Smart, sippable, and surprisingly eye-opening.

About the event
You already know you love Sauvignon Blanc. But do you know it can smell and taste entirely different depending on where it's grown? And that a Sancerre-lover can drink just as well on half the budget—if they know where to look? That's exactly what we're going to learn—together.
Book Society is thrilled to bring back our wine tasting series this July, led by Book Society's somm-in-training, Damian Guzman. This three-part workshop takes a fresh approach to wine education: each session zooms in on one compelling question—how does the same grape taste when grown in different hemispheres? Where are the hidden-value bottles sommeliers stock up on at home? And what really makes Champagne Champagne? Come for one class or all three; either way, you'll leave with a sharper palate and a few very good secrets.
