Orlando’s Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts, in partnership with world renowned Master Sommelier and restaurateur, George Miliotes, will host “Tasting with Master Sommelier George Miliotes at Judson’s Live,” an all-new immersive experience for wine lovers of all levels, for three dates this Spring.
The Details
George Miliotes is one of 273 Master Sommeliers in the world, and owner of Wine Bar George at Disney Springs, and he will host this 90-minute wine tasting which will focus on exploring and understanding wine in a new way.
Guests will learn with a “blind” tasting of world-renowned reds and refreshing whites, accompanied with a chef’s charcuterie board to complement the flavors of the wine.
“This event inspires you to use your senses differently,” says Miliotes. “You walk away with more than a tasting of delicious wine in an amazing venue, you gain a deeper understanding of wine, regions and taste – while having some fun!”
The events will take place in the newly opened Judson’s Live inside the Dr. Phillips Center, an intimate style club with table seating.
