Join us two days before the FIFA World Cup Final, held this year a mere 10 miles across the Hudson River, for a different kind of championship run. Spain, France, England, Argentina, Germany, Brazil: each a football powerhouse with a good shot at taking this summer’s premier global sporting title; and each ALSO a notable producer of quality wine. We’ll explore how each country expresses its unique identity through indigenous grape varieties, terroir and winemaking techniques, and taste representative wines from each country in thoughtful side-by-side comparisons, until, together, we crown our own champion. Traverse the world of wine through a curated global sampling of vinous diversity and deliciousness.

Class is 2 hours long, featuring an interactive format, with questions welcomed by seasoned instructor Adrian Murcia.
