Class Description

Description

Is your understanding of Riesling limited to its sweet expressions? This wine education class opens up the diverse world of this remarkable high-acid grape varietal. Riesling develops beautifully in cool growing regions and improves with extended aging. Yet many people encounter only the sweeter, more accessible styles. In reality, Riesling is crafted across the globe in formats ranging from still wines to sparkling expressions, and in styles spanning from utterly dry to lusciously dessert-sweet. Through a professional guided tasting of six carefully selected wines, you'll explore Riesling's origins, its cultivation in various international regions, and how different climates, soils, and winemaking traditions shape its character. You'll identify unifying qualities that connect these diverse examples while appreciating their individual regional distinctions.

Whether you're a devoted Riesling enthusiast or someone working to deepen your wine appreciation and analytical skills, this class offers valuable insights and hands-on learning.
