Virtual Wine Tastings to Try at Home

Each bottle of wine is its own experience and adventure. The flavors, notes and aromas unleashed with the pull of a cork can be an exciting journey to a new land or a relaxing voyage to an old haunt. And wine tastings? They’re like having a guide along for the ride. But you don’t always have to leave the house to experience a wine tasting. These winemakers from around the world will bring virtual wine tastings right to you.

How do you host your own wine tasting? The Prisoner Wine Company will give you a crash course thanks to Wine Educator Roberto Cromeyer and Director of Winemaking Chrissy Whitman. Together, the two have created a series of Instagram and Facebook videos that take you through wine tasting 101. The online course can be viewed at any time, and it's built around The Prisoner’s lineup of nontraditional blends, and capped by pantry-friendly recipes from Chef Brett Young.

Domaines de Barons de Rothschild (Lafite) has partnered with Wine.com to take you on a virtual tour of their wines and properties from around the world. In a pre-recorded YouTube session, winemaker and chairwoman Saskia de Rothschild joins wine expert Gwendolyn Osburn in a sampling of vintages from South America to France —including a Bourdeaux blend that, according to Rothschild, aims to "shake the dust" off of the age old image of the famed, French wine region.

Bring the French countryside into your kitchen with an iconic Napa Valley winery.

To help you enjoy both from the comfort of your own home, Robert Mondavi has released a series of wine tasting videos that seek to inspire culinary creativity alongside their mainstay Napa Valley wines.
