Our interview with Patroski Lawson was so good, I had to break it up into two segments. Patroski runs the Square Hat Wine Company, a wine education company in Metro Atlanta. He leads wine education seminars and events, from tastings to corporate events.

On the first of a two-part show, we discussed the origins of Patroski’s company, and why he chose the name Square Hat Wine. Patroski was gracious enough to explain some wine basics in terms of food pairings and tasting techniques. Most importantly, he shares the details of his new wine class, Wine 101 – An Introduction to Wine.

This class, as you’ll see in the interview, is the PERFECT class for all beginners and novices to get a handle on how to drink and enjoy wine, and provide you enough knowledge to look good when ordering wine at a restaurant in front of the boss.

On Part 2, we enjoy three wines that Patroski brought to the studio for an on-air tasting! Part 2 coming soon!
