About this Event
In the Canary Islands, volcanic landscapes, Atlantic influences, and distinctive grape varieties create a wine culture with an unmistakable identity. Across the islands, growers have adapted their vineyards to demanding conditions, preserving traditions closely tied to the land.
This class explores the Spanish archipelago through four curated food-and-wine pairings inspired by its island table. Regional cheeses, savory accompaniments, and traditional flavors provide the backdrop for discovering how elevation, exposure, volcanic terrain, and local growing practices shape the wines.
An Atlantic escape with unexpected wines and plenty to discover.
Each Eat the World experience includes:
- Four curated regional food-and-wine pairings featuring distinctive wines, cheeses, accoutrements, and signature dishes;
- An immersive, guided exploration of the destination’s terroir, culinary traditions, and wine culture, led by Wedgewood’s cheese and wine experts;
- The stories behind each pairing, connecting what’s on your plate and in your glass to the place it comes from;
- Access to wine and cheese selections curated specifically for the featured destination.
