Spend time cooking with wine in this cozy, flavor-packed class inspired by wine country kitchens. You’ll start with mushroom toast topped with a silky beurre blanc, then simmer a hearty sausage and red wine ragu tossed with rigatoni. For dessert, we’ll poach pears in red wine and serve them with creamy mascarpone and cookie crumbles. Along the way, you’ll learn how to use wine to build depth, balance, and richness in both savory and sweet dishes. Perfect for a date, time spent with friends, or anyone who loves bold, comforting flavors.
