In this episode of Inside the Bunghole, hosts Pam and James welcome guests Rajeev from Kubani Wines and German from Vantage Wines, along with Anthony from Classic Club to discuss an upcoming, unique wine event in the desert. Taking place on February 5th at the Classic Club's Bellatrix restaurant, the gathering moves beyond a standard wine tasting to focus on the science and art of glassware. The panel explains how the shape, thickness, and design of Riedel wine glasses dramatically alter where wine hits the palate, fundamentally transforming how different varietals—such as Cabernet, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, and Pinot Noir—are experienced and enjoyed.

Listeners get a comprehensive look at what to expect during the roughly 80-minute educational class, which will be led by professional Riedel representative, Julie Barba. Attendees will be guided through side-by-side tastings comparing standard cups to specialized stemware, highlighting an immediate, noticeable difference in flavor and aroma. In addition to the immersive masterclass, guests can choose between a ticket option that includes a high-end set of Riedel glasses to take home—which retail for more than the price of admission—or an expanded option featuring a multi-course sit-down dinner paired with featured wines.

Throughout the episode, the hosts emphasize that this collaborative event brings together local wine authorities, including representatives from LG’s, WineWomen PSP, and Saffron restaurant, to offer something truly out-of-the-box for the local community. Complete with valet parking, a welcome glass of champagne, and expert insights, the event promises to permanently change participants' perspectives on wine appreciation.
