Old World Wine & New World Wine – Exploring and Explaining Terroir

It's important to remember that wine doesn't exist in a vacuum. There is a reason that the Barossa Shiraz that you were drinking in college doesn't taste just the same as the Crozes-Hermitage that you bought to take to last week's dinner party. Where a grape is planted by a winegrower is as important as the variety he chooses.

Join us for an afternoon of tasting and talking about wine as Blue Ribbon Restaurants' Wine Director Sam Ehrlich walks us through some of the world's great wine regions, see through the prism of Syrah and Riesling grapes. Light snacks from Blue Ribbon’s chefs will also be served.
