KNCT Wine Classic – January 17

KNCT wine classic

We will be participating in the Annual KNCT Wine Classic again this year – our sixth year! This year’s event will be held on Saturday, January 17th from 7pm – 10pm. We’ll be pouring our wines along with our friends at Dancing Bee Winery, Red Caboose Winery, and the Vineyard at Florence, among others. This fun event raises money for our local PBS station. You’ll enjoy tastings, appetizers, and a complimentary wine glass.

As part of the KNCT Wine Classic, there will be a “Wine 101” class at 5pm on Saturday, January 17th. Learn the basics of tasting wine with certified sommelier Steve Hanik. Take this jump-start course and you’ll know what to look for in a glass of wine and how to describe it. You’ll also get to know your preferences and how to buy wines that you like. Following the class, take your wine knowledge into the KNCT Wine Classic and practice what you’ve learned. This course is perfect for novices starting to learn about wine, planning a trip to wine country or attending a wine dinner.

Buy your tickets to both the Wine Classic and Wine 101 class in advance at ticketstickets.com/knct. Admission is discounted in advance, so don’t wait to buy your tickets at the door!

About School of Wags:
School of Wags is an 501c3, non-profit organization dedicated to rescuing and re-homing large breed dogs, primarily Mastiffs, from situations where they are homeless due to owner surrender or in high kill shelters. By working with committed volunteers, foster homes and local veterinarians, we are able to substantially reduce the flow of unwanted animals into shelters to be euthanized, provide them with loving care, vaccinate, spay or neuter, and find them well-matched, carefully screened, loving, adoptive, forever homes.We also serve as a resource to our community and all pet owners by providing training, education and information on responsible pet ownership, including the importance of spay  & neuter, balanced behavior training, pet first aid and good nutrition. School of Wags is a dynamic, evolving institution that is an agent of change for the animal welfare world. We are operating innovative and beneficial programs for animals and people and are making an impact in each family that will last for generations.
