About This Adventure

Discover the art of dessert and wine pairing at Little Washington Winery! This unique tasting experience will guide you in creating perfect combinations that elevate flavors and enhance your evening. Join friends for an unforgettable journey into the world of sweet delights and exquisite wines, ensuring a memorable conclusion to your night.

Let’s address the impossible pairing! Experts say dessert and wine cannot possibly be put into your mouth at the same time. Technically they are right - better be careful, some of these flavors are in definite conflict! Wine enhances taste, creating an entirely new flavor profile. Desserts are no different. Making the perfect dessert and wine pairing can be an incredible way to end a memorable evening. You may be hard pressed to find anyone upset with the wrong wine & dessert pairing (it IS wine and it IS dessert after all). This tasting will show you how to get a perfect pairing every time!
