How do you read an Italian wine label? What are some of their lesser-known grape varieties? How do we best pair our summer recipes with Italian wines?

There are over 300 grape varieties native to Italy. Join Annie this Saturday at 6 pm CST as we explore the origins and qualities of two grapes with strong Italian roots: Schiava (a red wine) and Carricante (a white wine). She’ll lead a guided tasting of these two classic examples, discuss pairings, and how they reflect the land from which they originate.
To reserve a seat in Annie’s class May 2nd at 6 p.m. CST, please fill out the form below. We keep our classes at an intimate size so that everyone has a chance to participate in the on-going conversation that is wine.
ANNIE’S CLASS IS NOW SOLD OUT!
We hope that you’ll consider supporting one of our other Sommeliers who still have classes open for registration this week. Check out our Class Schedule to support another service industry worker in need.
