Varietal identification is easier than you think. This LIVE webinar is held on Friday, August 29 at 1 PM Pacific Time, with Master Sommelier Madeline Triffon.
In the spirit of a relaxed late summer tasting, we’ll provide a list of 12 potential grape variety options to choose from - 6 whites and 6 reds. From there, we’ll taste through the six wines and practice grouping like-minded varieties together. This will help moderate the pressure of double blind deductive tasting. More fun, less stress! Ambitious folks, not to worry. This tasting will still be a challenge. As the saying goes, one look at the label is worth a million bucks. We will share the label's story only after tasting, identifying the clues, and revealing them together, as we go around the world with six thoughtful wine selections.
The LIVE webinar will feature Master Sommelier Madeline Triffon, and be co-hosted by Master Sommelier Tim Gaiser, on August 29 at 1 PM Pacific. A YouTube recording will be posted by August 31. REGISTRATION for this Zoom event is now open.
