School of DECANT - Aperitifs 1/22/25 - San Francsico

  • $50.00

Ready to ship  -  24 left

Discover the art of the apéritif in this lively and delicious masterclass led by winemaker Sam Sheehan (POE Wines, MOMMENPOP) and Master Sommelier Gillian Ballance.

Join us on Wednesday, January 22, 2025, at 6:30 PM at DECANT SF to explore why apéritifs are the ultimate low-alcohol treat that’s perfect for sipping all year round.

Apéritifs—those light, refreshing, and versatile pre-dinner drinks—are often misunderstood or overlooked in favor of wine or cocktails. In this class, we’ll demystify this beloved beverage category by diving into:

  • What exactly is an apéritif? From dry vermouths and sherry to citrus-infused creations, learn what makes an apéritif distinct and delightful.
  • How are they made? From botanical infusions to citrus-forward blends, discover the artistry behind crafting an apéritif.
  • How are apéritifs enjoyed? Explore both the classic European traditions and creative modern twists that make them a versatile addition to any occasion.
  • Why apéritifs are timeless: With their lower alcohol content, bright flavors, and elegant simplicity, apéritifs are perfect for creating a relaxed, intentional drinking experience.

Whether you’re new to apéritifs or already a fan, this class will give you a fresh perspective on how to enjoy these light and lively drinks—and why they deserve a permanent spot in your home bar.

Tickets are just $50 and include an expert-led tasting, insights into the apéritif-making process, and plenty of inspiration for year-round enjoyment.
