A few weeks ago we told you about learning wine the strategic way at the Boston Center for Adult Education.The appeal of this approach to wine -- structured yet fun, takes you from Point A to Point B with lots of sipping in between -- is so great that the "wine the strategic way" class is now over-subscribed. They've had to offer a second session and now they need to fill it up.
That's where your opportunity comes in: a second chance to sign up for a very popular course.
The catch is that you've got to decide by Monday, and the sessions start on Wednesday.
Yep, that's this Monday and this Wednesday.
Not a lot of time. So here's what you need to know:
The class -- offered via a universally-respected organization called Wine and Spirits Education Trust (WSET) -- has no prerequisites.
It's designed for people with a limited understanding of wine. (Which means stupid questions are welcome.)
The instructor tells you exactly where to start. (How to taste wine, how to read labels, how to select wine, and which grapes and regions to definitely know.)
And it's broken down into two-hour sessions, from 6 to 8 p.m. on Wednesday evenings from March 3 through June 23.
All in all you'll taste more than 90 wines. Nine-ty.
The class fits quite nicely into that after-work slot.
And it ends just in time for you to go and show off your newly-acquired knowledge at your favorite neighborhood place, or even to the folks who normally sit around your kitchen table.

Which makes it not such a bad way to spend two hours on Wednesday evenings.
