If you have tasted a Chablis and a Napa Valley Chardonnay, a red Burgundy and a Pinot Noir from Oregon, then you know that a single varietal can be produced into noticeably different wines. How is it that two wines from the same grape can show such variation in structure, aroma and flavor?
Decisions made in the winery-whether to ferment to dryness, maturation vessel-certainly contribute to a wine’s final profile. But many of these differences begin in the vineyard, and are attributed to climate, weather and terroir.
In this upcoming webinar series participants will have the opportunity to compare wines made from the same grape but grown and vinified in very different ways. The series includes 6 episodes, each with a comparison of two wines.
Alessandra Esteves, DipWSET, MW Candidate will present the Webinar.
