About this Event
Uncorked Vintage Academia brings you an unique inside look at one of the world's favorite varieties at SommSpace!
"Cabernet" is a term that can be thrown around - do you know the relationship between Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc?
We'll explore a minimum of 18 wines, most from a private collection, sold-out & library selections, winemaker-direct samples - and we'd get to hear from first hand grapegrowers and winemakers!
Featuring winemakers Barbara Lecuona from Siboney Cellars, and Mike Batek from Hye Meadow Winery to share insights.
The tour doesn't stop there...we'll venture into territory where Cabenet grows that perhaps you're perhaps least familiar with: Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, South Africa, Hungary, Greece, Morocco and the Levant - and of course a few benchmarks from the Loire, Bordeaux, and California -totalling 12 countries and several winemaking styles! We'll finish with a special old vintage bottle, 30+ years old.
We'll see you soon!
