Italy is hundreds of years ahead of the rest of the wine world when it comes to making delicious organic, natural, and biodynamic wines.
In this class, we will explore the fascinating world of Italian winemaking, where tradition meets innovation in sustainable practices. We will delve into the principles behind organic, natural, and biodynamic viticulture, understanding how each approach impacts the final product in the glass. From vineyard management to cellar techniques, we'll uncover the unique characteristics and flavors that emerge from these environmentally conscious methods. You'll taste a range of Italian wines, carefully chosen to tell the story of the terroir and the people who crafted them. We always have bread, olives, and antipasto with class, and naturally some Italian cheeses too as we explore wine and food pairing fundamentals.
Whether you're a wine enthusiast eager to explore sustainable winemaking or simply curious to expand your palate, join us for a delicious journey through Italy's organic wine landscape.
