Explore the vast flavor profiles offered from exotic, volcanic terroirs with wine educator and owner of Water Street Wine and Spirits, Kyle Knapton, guiding the way! Terroir can have an incredible impact on the aromatic and flavor profiles of a wine. Join us to learn more about what this means and why terroir can leave such a lasting mark on these premium wines. 🌋
Attendees will experience six rare volcanic wines from around the world paired with food by True Roots Catering. After this event, attendees will be able to recognize the rarity of volcanic soils and the unique qualities they impart onto winemaking, wine structure, and flavor profile. Our guide for the evening will ensure that everyone leaves more confident purchasing these hard-to-find wines and will learn more about wines that are comparable to the volcanic wines for everyday enjoyment!
