Has anyone done the wine seminars at F&WF?

[Lorelei528]

I just booked two different ones as a surprise for my DH!

Has anyone done these and if so, did you enjoy the experience? Opinions, etc. please?

It only cost me $6pp with my DVC discount so I guess it's worth it but I'm wondering if people thought it was worth the time etc.

Any thoughts etc. appreciated!

Thanks!

I've done them last year, and they were informative. I've enjoyed the presentations done by the wine reps. They didn't give much in the way of tasting samples. I don't know this year if they are providing a better pour this year. We probably won't know until the first people who do them post their experiences here.

I have not booked any for this year.

I haven't booked any either. The pours were relatively small, but there is a rumor they may be providing larger ones this year. One of the most anticipated seminars turned out to be a winery rep who showed a video and didn't talk. I won't be doing more of these, but I know some of them can be very enjoyable if you have a good presenter. I'm just not willing to gamble cash on the presenter.
