About this Event
As the city shakes off the last of winter, join us on April 13th for a high-energy tasting designed to wake up your palate. This session, "Earth Awakening," explores wines that vibrate with the energy of the soils they spring from—from the sun-scorched volcanic rocks of the Mediterranean to the floral blooms of the North African desert. Our expert Wine Educator, Beth Bornstein from West Side Grapes, will guide you through a selection of "living" wines that perfectly capture the transition into spring.
Just as we in NYC are beginning to trade our heavy coats for the brightness of spring, the wine world is undergoing its own transformation. We will explore how this seasonal shift encourages a natural lift in acidity and a distinctive brightening of the fruit, moving away from the weight of winter toward a more electric, high-energy profile. We will trace this journey from the deep, mineral roots of the earth through to the vibrant blooms in the glass, ending our flight with a selection that is truly special—something different, super fun, and refreshingly complex.
Whether you are a wine novice or a seasoned connoisseur, this class offers a fresh perspective on how the changing seasons shape the flavors in your glass. Guests will enjoy a selection of delicious appetizers to accompany the wines’ vibrant personalities. Space is limited for this mid-spring celebration, so reserve your glass today and help us toast to the awakening of the vine.
