Wine tasting at work

Today at work a colleague was having a session with her student who happens to be a wine sommelier (click here if you need an explanation of what this is). She came into the staff work area and asked that we join her as he had brought wine in to conduct a tasting. So the few of us that were lucky enough to be in the office joined them. He had brought 3 different bottles of wine, cheese, and bread. He even provided real wine glasses and had wine in a decanter waiting to serve to us (I didn't notice if he had luggage with him but was curious as to how he managed to bring all of this with him to his class). He explained to us which wines to pair with what cheeses and had us taste the wine before and after having the cheese to notice the difference in the taste.
Another great part of the experience is that all of the wine that we tried was organic, a first for me. He explained that this is a rare thing in the wine making industry as it lessens the production amount and can take longer for the wine to ferment. An important side note that he passed on is that since organic wine does not contain any sulfate it doesn't cause any headaches or hangover effect, can we all say bring on the organic wine?! 
Of course since it was a "tasting" we didn't really drink a lot of wine but it was great to learn more about wine and how to match it with different cheese. I think that immigration should conduct free classes in this subject area because it appears to be equally important to have a good basic knowledge of wine and cheese for my assimilation to this culture!!!
I really enjoyed the job I had back in the states but this experience would have NEVER happened there! However, I think that it makes for a happier work environment and should be considered standard operating procedures! Anybody agree with me or had something like this happen at work?
