March 4th, Chelsea Wine Vault, 6:30-8pm

This is one of our all time favorite styles. Fortified wines are amazingly complex and flavorful but unfortunately they are misunderstood and foreign to most people. During this class we will demystify this diamond in the rough and in no time we will transform you into a lover of these gems. Come and taste through a port, sherry, Madeira, marsala and a vermouth! $35

Re: NYC Retailer/Restaurant port tastings
I must be misunderstanding fortified wines, as I didn't realise that people drank Vermouth except in Martinis...
Re: NYC Retailer/Restaurant port tastings
Chelsea Wine Vault is where I found those two bottles of Casa de Santa Eufemia Special Reserve White Port for $75 each. I only saw one modest set of shelves for Port/fortified wine, but the store is large enough that the set I saw might have been the "teaser" rack.
