About the Event

Embark on a fascinating journey with our latest Academy of Wine installment, "Tour de Terroir," where we delve into the very foundation of exceptional wine: the soil. Prepare to unleash your inner geologist and explore the diverse world of terroirs that shape the character of renowned wine regions.

Ever pondered the magic behind limestone's minerality, chalk's vibrant acidity, or clay's rich texture in wine? Join Wine Director Michael Wells as he meticulously dissects the intricate relationship between soil composition and wine style. Through insightful explanations and carefully selected tastings, you'll discover how different soil types—from volcanic to gravel—influence the flavor profile, aroma, and overall structure of your favorite wines.

This isn't just a lecture; it's an interactive exploration designed to deepen your appreciation for the nuanced art of winemaking. Discover the hidden stories beneath the vines and elevate your wine knowledge to new heights.
