Join us on Saturday, March 7th @ 2:00pm with Certified Sommelier/Certified Wine Educator and Official Rioja Wine Region Ambassador, Sam Schmitt, as we to dig into Rioja's long history of producing some of Europe's most exciting wines.

Much of this region's reputation is driven by its hyper-focused attention to quality and its unique aging requirements. In this 90-minute taste-and-learn seminar, we will discuss and explore the profiles of Rioja's wines from foundational D.O.Ca Rioja to the extended barrel aging Crianzas through Gran Reservas and explain the relatively new introduction of single vineyard, village, and sub-region classifications.

Whether you are unfamiliar with the wines of Rioja or a long time fan, this is a great opportunity to taste the full spectrum of these exceptional wines from this important, historic Spanish wine region.

You must be 21 or older to participate.
