The class rounds out with students enjoying a buffet of classic luxury food matches while indulging in additional bubbly, making for a sparkling evening you'll always remember.

Move over Bordeaux and Burgundy, wine from France's south is more and more becoming the go-to area for flavorsome as well as thoughtful selections. This region is not only one of the oldest wine regions of France, but also a top producer, second only to Bordeaux. The prime regions lie along the Rhône, but the subregions and many appellations - as well as the numerous grape varieties permitted - make for a varied and interesting wine selection. Certainly, delicious reds such as savory Syrahs of the northern Rhône or classic Châteauneuf-du-Pape, but also rich whites and refreshing rosés. Richard Vayda, ICE's resident sommelier, will host the evening's regional wine survey. Snacks for pairing will be served, with at least 9 wines included in the tasting.
