Join us for Taste of Terroir, our immersive wine education series that uncorks the connection between grape, place, and tradition. In each session, we journey through a distinct wine region, exploring how terroir shapes the wines we love.
On Saturday, July 26th, we travel to Verona and the Veneto, one of Italy’s most dynamic and romantic wine regions. From the crisp, mineral-driven whites of Soave and Lugana to the rich, velvety depths of Valpolicella, this tasting captures the full spectrum of Northern Italian elegance. Our highlight of the evening: the iconic Amarone della Valpolicella, known for its power, complexity, and dried-fruit richness.
Leading the experience is the charismatic and knowledgeable sommelier & owner, Jake Assaf, will guide us through the region’s history, styles, and the unique winemaking traditions that make Veneto wines so unforgettable.
Seating is limited and reservations are required. We look forward to tasting the terroir of Verona with you!
