Overview

Unearth the secrets of the vineyard in this hands-on workshop that pairs fine wine with the very earth it comes from.

Ever wondered why two wines made from the same grape can taste completely different? The answer is often right beneath your feet. Join expert Sonya Borys for an evening of sensory exploration where we "talk dirty" and dive deep into the world of soil. Soil types are a critical piece of the terroir puzzle. In this 90-minute session, you won’t just learn about dirt—you’ll taste its influence and take a piece of it home with you.

What’s Included:

  • A Mini-Lesson on Dirt: Understand the fascinating relationship between geology and viticulture.
  • Curated Tasting: Sip on (4) distinct wines specifically chosen to showcase the characteristics of (4) distinct soil types.
  • Interactive Crafting: Create your own set of (4) custom wine charms. These aren't just any beads—they are crafted from the same materials as the soils the grapes grew in!

Details:

  • Date: Wednesday, May 13
  • Time: 6:00 PM – 7:30 PM
