Wine Tasting: Starting Your Wine Collection: Burgundy!

Starting a wine collection at home doesn’t have to be intimidating- or expensive. In this beginner-friendly class, attendees will learn how building a thoughtful, drinkable wine collection is far more accessible than they may have imagined. Our resident wine expert, Taylor Cotton, will break down smart buying strategies, what to look for when selecting bottles, and how to start small with confidence. The class focuses on Burgundy, one of the world’s most respected wine regions and an ideal place to begin a collection. Through guided tasting and clear explanations, you’ll discover why Burgundy’s emphasis on place, balance, and age-worthiness makes it perfect for both enjoyment now and cellaring for the future, without needing a massive budget or deep prior knowledge. As always there will be plenty of lovely cheese pairings and charcuterie to go around! See you at Athens Cooks!
