New World v. Old World

Wine is now made on almost every continent in the world. How did it get there, and how does it taste now? Taste five wines with us as we cross oceans and continents. Here are some sample topics:

• Discover how Syrah became Shiraz; how Primitivo became Zinfandel; how Sauvignon Blanc changed New Zealand (and how New Zealand changed Sauvignon Blanc); and how California took on France in the battle of the Bordeaux bottles!
• Why are the Andes of Argentina perfect for Malbec and the valleys of Oregon perfect for Pinot Noir
• Can you beat a Burgundy?

 All wines are paired with cheese/charcuterie nibbles. Please let us know in advance if you have any dietary requirements.
