Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this wine tasting class:

A maddening thing, wine. With so many details to consider, and so many choices available, it’s a wonder anyone drinks the stuff. But shopping for wine need not be a dizzying affair. Yes, there are myriad things to consider; grape, region, producer, etc. Unfortunately, the element most often overlooked is also one of the most important: climate.

In this class, we will taste and discuss how climate impacts wine, and how to use that information to find the wines best suited to your palate. With side by side comparisons, you will see that Chardonnay grown in California, and Chardonnay from Chablis in France, could not be more different. Those from the golden state tend to be buttery, rich, and round, while examples from Chablis tend to be crisp, clean, and with enough acid to shred the enamel from your teeth.

Naturally, the same principle applies to red wines. A bottle of Syrah from France’s Cornas region is typically firm and taut, you can feel the drying tannins. Most Aussie examples, however, tend to be rich, smooth and velvety, and loaded with sweet, ripe fruit. The difference? Australia gets more sun, it’s warmer, the grapes spend more time on the vine.

Best of all, these principles apply to all wines, from all regions. So once you recognize your preference, cool climate or warm, you’re much better equipped to pick bottles you’ll enjoy, even if you’ve never heard of the grape, or the region. How? One key clue: the alcohol level. This, and more, will be discussed in this exploration of sun, heat, and vines.    

As always, an array of beautiful breads, meats, and cheeses will be on offer, and paired with the wines.
