Class Description

Description

From the soaring northern Alps, along the Apennine spine to the southern volcanic slopes of Etna, Italy boasts one of the most diverse and complicated landscapes in the world of wine. Sort out the facets in this intensive class.

Understanding the regions and categories of Italian Wine can be complicated. With extensive wine production in all 20 regions, hundreds of indigenous varieties, climates ranging from Alpine to Mediterranean and diverse soil types, Italian wine study can be daunting.

It is critical for a CSW to have extensive knowledge to understand, appreciate, and communicate the complexity of Italy. We'll explore Piedmont, Tuscany, Veneto and much more.
