Commonwealth Wine School
Not-so-tricky treats: combine wine and sweets
$100.00

Sunday, October 27th, 1:00-2:30 p.m
Halloween season is the perfect time for sweets, treats and of course wine! Whether we try Halloween candy left over from handing out treats or buy ourselves a treat, these tasty morsels of sweet goodness are part of what makes this time of year so special. When it comes to pairing a drink with these seasonal sensations, wine can be the perfect way to complement the variety of sweets available.

Join wine educator (and candy lover) Adam Centamore for an afternoon of sipping strong libations and nibbling on some truly excellent sweet Halloween treats. You’ll taste different styles of wine paired with a wide variety of seasonal sweets in combinations that will show you how great these combinations can be. The only scary thing about this course is how delicious these combinations are!

**We will make every effort to accommodate food allergies and/or dietary restrictions. However, because we work with small-scale producers around the world, we cannot guarantee or protect against cross-contamination.**
