June 2021 Series

How to Be a Rosé Connoisseur

With summer upon us so much pink wine crowding the shelves, how do you know which ones are well-made and to your liking?

In his signature style that Bon Appétit calls “winespeak without the geek,” renowned wine author and speaker Mark Oldman will take you around the world in search of the best styles of blushing wine. We will cover:

  • How to differentiate rose styles from different countries and regions
  • Is expensive rosé worth it?
  • Where the most interesting and exotic rosé is coming from
  • Mind-blowing food pairings with rosé
  • And a treasure trove of insider tips and nuggets

While he will be offering several wine picks, Mark will be presenting and discussing three key bottles. You are free to purchase these wines in advance (though this is not a prerequisite; you are welcome to bring your own bottle or just watch).

Mark Oldman

Mark Oldman is a wine expert, author, entrepreneur, and, elementally, someone who delights in helping people simplify complex subjects. He is known for his singular ability to unravel wine’s complexities with a potent blend of entertainment, style, and humor.

Mark’s enduring wine books — including the recent IACP-and-Gourmand-award-winning How to Drink Like a Billionaire (Simon & Schuster) — are considered by many to be best of their kind. Mark’s previous books—Oldman’s Guide to Outsmarting Wine (Penguin) and Oldman’s Brave New World of Wine (W.W.

His standing invitations to the country’s top food festivals and consistently sold-out events attest to his position as one of gastronomy’s most exciting speakers. He has presented at the Aspen Food & Wine Classic for the last 18 years as well at South Beach Wine & Food, New York Wine & Food, Pebble Beach Food & Wine, and many others.
