Portland may be known as a beer town but wine is beginning to spill out from the Willamette Valley into our fair city. The many urban wineries and shops sprinkled on the east side of the river are offering classes to help you increase your wine knowledge. For the novice, wine can sound complicated and confusing. But once you understand some basics, you’ll be speaking like a pro in no time. So learn the lingo from the experts– sign up for a class today!
