Sommelier Joe Smith is back for another educational class, this time taking a closer look at one of the most important influences in winemaking: oak. We’ll explore how different types of oak, barrel size, age, toast level, and time in barrel can shape a wine’s aroma, flavor, texture, and structure.
Throughout the class, Joe will use a selection of wines alongside our aroma kit to help guests identify classic oak-derived characteristics like vanilla, baking spice, toast, cedar, coconut, and smoke. We’ll also look at how winemakers use oak differently around the world and learn to recognize when oak is making its presence known in the glass. This class goes beyond simply asking whether a wine is “oaky” and explores exactly what that wood is doing to your wine.

Join us at Somm Wine Bar on Tuesday, November 17 from 6–8 PM for an evening of Champagne, fried chicken, and caviar, led by Stephen James of UVA Imports. We’ll kick things off with Crémant de Bourgogne from Lucie Thiéblemont before diving into five Champagnes from Eric Taillet, one of the Vallée de la Marne’s grower-producers.
Stephen will guide us through the six wines, exploring Eric Taillet’s approach to Champagne and what makes each bottling unique. Throughout the evening, we’ll pair the wines with fried chicken sandwiches and caviar, bringing together bubbles, salt, richness, and crunch. Tickets are $175 per person and include all six wines, fried chicken sandwiches, and caviar.
