Heath Hiudt, UNLV Sommelier Academy instructor and sommelier at the Cosmopolitan’s upscale STK restaurant, will lead a two-day excursion to California wine country August 22-23.
A quick morning plane ride will whisk you from Las Vegas’ scorching summer heat to northern California where average August highs are 83°F and nighttime lows average 55°F. Napa’s climate and soil combine to create one of the world’s premiere wine production regions. Hiudt will take the group to several of his favorite vineyards and wineries. Participants will see wine production from start to finish from an insider’s point of view and get to sample local wines. Dinner and overnight in Napa will re-energize you for a second day of winery tours and the return voyage home.
Registration includes round trip airfare from Las Vegas to Sacramento, ground transportation, one night stay (double occupancy) at the Chablis Inn, one group dinner, and 4-5 guided winery tours. For additional details about The Napa Experience!, call 702-895-5224 or email charlee.zingraf@unlv.edu.
