Zinfandels of the World - A Blind Tasting Class
AN AMERICAN ORIGINAL: Learn the fascinating story of this red grape with multiple aliases.
Description
“Genetically identical to Primitivo? Maybe, but I’m not Italian” – Paso Wine Man
Zinfandel is a California classic and accounts for almost 10% of California grape vine acreage. Learn its origins, other homes and characteristics. Compare it to its genetic relatives from Italy, Croatia & perhaps beyond. Discover how it varies based on climate, soils and traditions in various international regions through a guided blind tasting of 6-7 wines. Despite the differences you will find common threads. This class is a must for Zin lovers and those seeking to improve their blind wine tasting skills and knowledge.
This class may be taken as part of our Wine Grapes of the World Series or individually à la carte. Your class fees can be applied to the cost of the full series if you would like to continue on. Those who would like to attend online and forgo the wine tastings can apply SKIPTHEWINE at checkout to many online classes for 40% off. SEE ALL WEBONLY CLASSES
