Everything that I do is about educating, whether it’s teaching or consulting. We look at the entire world of wine – the business end, the viniculture; viticulture and how everything works – not only how it tastes or smells.

Wine 101: Spain

Spain

A Thru the Vines 101 Series Workshop

Spain is one of the aisles in your favorite wine store that you should be wandering over to; if you like full bodied reds, easy drinking blends, or crisp refreshing whites.

Spain has the largest area under vine in the world, and  has a long history steeped in viticulture and wine making.We will cover some history, regions like Rioja and Bierzo, and  grapes like Tempranillo and Garnacha. We will taste through some exciting wines that are available here in Nashville.
