Fido Wine Classes
I am super, super stoked about the wine class some friends and I signed up for at Fido next week! Omni Beverage/Vinea and Fido are hosting this incredible 6 week wine series starting on Tuesday, August 11th, running through Tuesday, September 15th.
I was tipped off about the course by Jimmy Collins, the publisher/editor of Nashville Wine Press. He participated a couple of months ago and then detailed on his blog, saying it was one of the most informative and fun wine classes in Nashville he’d ever done. This is coming from a guy that drinks ALOT of wine!
As I mentioned, it’s a 6 weeks series, but that doesn’t mean you have to do all 6 weeks. You can pick and choose the classes that work for you- but just do it quick before it sells out!
Week 1- Evolution of Wine
Week 2- The Vineyard
Week 3- The Winery
Week 4- Fruit
Week 5- Structure
Week 6- Blending
Each class will include 6 wines and light food. I’m really just as excited about the food as I am the wine because Chef John Stephenson always whips out some amazing food– and uses local ingredients, my favorite. Every day I drool over the selection on their “daily specials” menu in my Google Reader. Too bad I work 20 minutes away or I would be there for lunch a few times a week.
Classes are $25 and you can register by sending an email to events@cafefido.com. Class size is limited, so sign up before it’s full!

Fido is one of my favorite nearby places, especially for a leisurely breakfast. Wish they had better parking (like most Hillsboro Village places)…
Booo! How did I not hear about this until now!?
Rebekka- you should take a class! room for 24 ppl total, but so far each week there has only been 21 or 22. They said there was room for 1 or 2 more next week. Email asap to sign up for one. Promise it will NOT disappoint!
Do you still hold wine classes?
Hi Whitney, I don’t personally hold the wine classes, but Fido still has them. Actually they have an Italian series happening currently. There is a class on May 9th and another on June 13th. Check out this link for more info on the May class: http://www.pingg.com/rsvp/6i5ww66j38dq3n7z4
