Sommelier Billie Rolla will lead a group of wine enthusiasts in “Gleek Like a Wine Geek: Understanding Acidity in Wine” that includes a lab activity, small group conversation, and of course, wine!

Summer is around the corner, and it’s time to discover those beautiful, refreshing, high-acid wines that pair so well with the beach, friends, summer barbecue, and food! What makes these summer greats shine: some bright, sun-shining acidity of course. In this wine lab, we will learn how to identify and describe acid in wine and explore why high-acid wines pair so well with food. This Wine Lab is a great choice to prepare for The Art & Science of Food and Wine Pairing coming in the fall.

This experience includes one bottle each of the following wines for guests to take home:
2021 Foley Johnson Sauvignon Blanc
2021 Firestone Riesling
2018 Silverado Vineyards Estate Cabernet Sauvignon

Duration: 1:30 hour experience

Reservation is for parties of 2.
Firestone Cellar Club and FFW Members: $156 per 2 guests
General Public – $195 per 2 guests
