This class is intended for adventurous wine drinkers, geology-curious guests, and anyone who wants to explore the bold, mineral-driven world of volcanic wine.
Volcanic soils leave a bold imprint on the wines they produce often resulting in bottles with electric acidity, savory minerality, and striking texture. In this class, we’ll explore what makes volcanic terroirs so unique, how different types of volcanic rock influence vine stress and flavor, and why winemakers around the world seek out these sites. All while tasting through wines from iconic volcanic regions to uncover the common threads (and stunning diversity) of wines born from fire.
