Mastering Holiday Wine Pairings with Emma Scheffer

Join us for a sparkling evening dedicated to the art of festive wine pairing. In this special holiday workshop, you’ll learn how thoughtful wine choices can transform Christmas dinners, holiday gatherings and end-of-year celebrations.

Together, we’ll slow down, taste attentively and build your intuition for matching wine with food. You’ll learn what to look for in a bottle when planning a dinner, how to create contrast or harmony in a pairing, and how to confidently choose wines that add warmth, generosity, and sparkle to your holiday table.

Workshop includes a guided tasting of four carefully selected wines that embody the richness of the season. You’ll be invited to explore not only different grapes, regions and winemaking styles, but also the subtle textures, aromas and flavour structures that make certain wines shine alongside festive dishes. From vibrant acidity that lifts a rich starter to velvety tannins that wrap beautifully around winter flavours, each wine opens a new lens on how pairing works.

By the end, you’ll leave not only with new knowledge, but with the inspiration to impress friends and family with your festive pairings this season.
