FRI. MAY 24 •• 6:30-7:30pm           

Wines of Napa and Sonoma

•• Demonstration

California is quite complex – it's practically its own country when it comes to wine production. California constitutes about 90% of US wine production and if it were a country, would be the 4th leading wine producer behind France, Italy, and Spain. With over 2,800 wineries and 4,600 grape growers, California has more than tripled its wine production in the past 20 years. This class will help familiarize you with the "deeper tracks" of Cali wines and reacclimatize you to the more famous counties of Sonoma and Napa while you taste wines from the respective regions. $19
