March 6th, The New Iberia Wine Class

$79.00

Friday, March 6th, 6:30pm - 8:15pm

After eighteen years in NYC, I moved back to California to farm a vineyard, make wine, and get my hands dirty again. But I miss teaching, and seeing people, so I'm moving back. I'm genuinely excited for this class (and all the classes) and hope you can attend. And if you've never attended before, come join us to see what all the fuss is about.

Innovations are occurring in all major wine-producing countries - France, Italy, here in the US, and beyond. And I could put together a great line-up of bottles from any of them, but none would be as compelling, as exciting, or as delicious as what we'll be pouring on May 9.

In previous Spain classes, I've already poured bottles from the Canary Islands, Sierra de Gredos, and Bierzo, and I'll do it again, because there are countless new producers worth discovering, putting their own spin on local, indigenous grape varieties. But also on tap could be creations from the Ribeiro, Ribeira Sacra, or Monterrei.

As for Portugal, here, too, we will likely visit some known locales - the Douro, the Dão, perhaps Bairrada - but with a focus on the vignerons crafting the most intriguing wines, made from native grapes, and made with love. We may even leave the mainland, and head to the Azores islands, land of volcanoes and fiery wines you won't soon forget.

We'll taste 8-10 wines, and yes, cheese, breads, and charcuterie will be served - the good stuff and plenty of it. I hope to see you, and thank you for your consideration.
