True or false: A bottle of red + a bottle of white = a bottle of pink.
If you faltered for even a second, maybe it’s time to put down the juice and call A Casa, a mobile school (of sorts) for amateur drinkers.
Ex-Babbo sommelier Paul Lang (stamped the “cork dork” by Batali) heads the operation. He and a team of well-heeled winos break down the basics of wine in the confines of your humble abode.
Over a big ole Italian meal (antipasto, pasta, secondo, cheese, dessert) they prepare in your kitchen, they’ll give you tips for pairing food and wine, catch you up on varietals, and teach you to purchase like a pro.
You’ll beg them to stay for the week, but A Casa will encourage you to throw your own supper party so that you can show off your newfound knowledge by saying things like, “Oh, yes, duck with rosemary is perfect with an earthy nebbiolo.”
True or false: It sounds like you know what you’re talking about.
A Casa (646-851-8166 or acasanyc.com).
