Wines of Santa Barbara & Beyond
WHERE DIVERSITY REIGNS: Explore the complex soils and mild climate of this region (AKA America's Riviera) made famous by the 2004 film Sideways.
Description
The last session in this certification program presents a dynamic overview of this exceptional region that produces some of the most desired wines of the world. Proximity to the Pacific Ocean, varied mesoclimates, and a long growing season make a great combination. Conclude your knowledge with being able to understand and articulate the importance of the Humboldt Current, the Coriolis Effect, and Transverse Range. Santa Barbara County is much more than Sideways! Going beyond Santa Barbara learn about California wine’s southern origins and the many small AVAs and producers of the South Coast.
