What Are You Drinking Tonight?

Your college-age sister might still be drinking it, but you moved on from box wine a long time ago. However, how far past ordering the house Cabernet have you really gotten? Even if you think you've got a lock on the Tempranillo trend at Tinto or the Albarino craze elsewhere, wait until you meet Brian Freedman, a Wine School of Philadelphia instructor, who will truly open your eyes to the world of vino. Recently I attended one of his classes in the basement of Pinot Boutique, and nine wines later, I left with a deeper knowledge of how to navigate local wine lists, and the urge to learn even more.

Freedman works with local wine pioneer and Wine School of Philadelphia founder, Keith Wallace, who also stars in Philly.com's online show, Uncorked. So meet the guys and get your wine education started next Tuesday, May 13th during the Sommelier Smackdown. Frank Cipparone and Freedman will go head to head with 'Italy vs. France' food and wine pairings--and you decide who wins. For information and to purchase tickets, click here!
