Master Tasting Club in Kelowna

Want to 

... do some seriously fun tasting with your wine industry peers?

... explore different corners of the world, different grapes and styles?

... relax and remember what you love about wine? 

We've had so many requests to resurrect the Master Tasting classes. Finally, we are ready to re-launch these fun wine-industry evenings. But this time, it’s not a class series, but a… Master Tasting Club!

Who's in the club: Winemakers, sommeliers, diploma students, WSET3 grads, and even MWs. We all will know our way around wine. (If you aren't a winemaker, somm or WSET3 grad, please send us an email to see if this club is right for you.)  

What: 6+ wines a session. We taste them blind, make our notes based on prompts and topics of the night, then have a facilitated discussion about what’s in the glass. 

Who’s behind it: The wines will be chosen by Rhys Pender MW, and Arnica Rowan will be facilitating the tasting club. 

When: Every 2 weeks or once a month - you choose. 90 minute sessions. See the dates below.

Where: ARC Liquor Store classroom, Highway 97, Kelowna. 7pm-8:30pm.
