Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this wine tasting class:

Think Riesling is only sweet? Discover the many sides of this versatile high acid grape.

Riesling thrives in cool climates and ages for decades but many only know the sweet and simple styles. It is made in many places from still to sparkling, bone-dry to dessert sweet. Learn its origins, other homes and characteristics. Discover how it varies based on climate, soils and traditions in various international regions through a guided tasting of 6 wines. Despite the differences you will find common threads. This class is a must for Riesling lovers and those seeking to improve their wine tasting skills and knowledge.

This class may be taken as part of our Wine Grapes of the World Series or individually à la carte.

Zoomers will have tasting kits they can either pickup or have delivered for an additional fee. View wine pickup and delivery options.
