Riesling Rediscovered: A Guided Tasting and Exploration

October 19 @ 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm

ripe riesling grapes on the vine

Riesling is one of the world’s most expressive grapes—capable of producing everything from bone-dry, mineral-driven wines to some of the most luxurious dessert wines ever made. This fall, join us for a guided tasting and discussion exploring what makes Riesling so compelling, versatile, and age-worthy.

We’ll explore where Riesling thrives—from Germany’s Mosel and Rheingau to Alsace, Austria, Oregon, Washington, and California—tasting a curated lineup of wines that highlight how climate, soil, and winemaking shape Riesling’s many expressions. Along the way, we’ll introduce the traditional German classification system (Prädikatswein), which ranks wines by grape ripeness at harvest.

Whether you’re a devoted fan or just Riesling-curious, this class is your chance to discover why this grape is treasured by sommeliers and collectors worldwide.

Full wine list and ticket details coming soon.
