Many claim that Cabernet is the king of California wines. While this noble grape has certainly done its fair share to elevate California to the top tier of the world's wine regions, it has also earned the state a reputation for pricey cult wines that only a select few can access. Our class will focus on a wider swath of the California grape-scape. You'll learn about the sexy Pinot Noir being grown in the Central Coast, lush Zinfandel and Rhone blends from up north and, with a little luck, we'll show off a cult-ish Cabernet from the Napa Valley. Join us to find out why California deserves its reputation as one of the greatest wine regions in the world, and why it's not just about Napa Cab! Please stop by the shop for more information or to purchase tickets.
