God Forsaken Grapes and Their Relations | March 5th | 6:00-7:30 p.m.

Instructor: Mark Björnson of Björnson Vineyard

Class Type: Take Notes! | These are our classic "lecture-styled" classes, where you're given lots of in-depth information by a knowledgeable instructor. Anyone is welcome to attend, but these classes are geared toward folks with more than a passing interest in the subject.

WHAT YOU'LL GET IN THIS CLASS:

• A deep-dive, instructor-led tasting.
• A flight of 7 wines.
• An individual cheese plate.
• Special pricing on all featured wines.
• Some lasting memories!

Join winemaker Mark Björnson for a tasting of god forsaken grapes and their relations. Gouais Blanc. Auxerrois. Aligoté. Gamay. Mondeuse Noire. These forlorn and forgotten grapes are the ancestors that gave way to tremendous lineages like Syrah, Chardonnay, Gamay Noir, Riesling, and more. We'll have some Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, as well, to see the family likeness. But really this is a night that's all about a little bit of forgotten history in your glass. A chance to try something that few people have ever had and may never will.
