Cost: $95

Nestled in the French Alps near the borders of Switzerland and Italy, Savoie produces some of France’s most refreshing and distinctive mountain wines. In this focused regional exploration, you’ll discover how high-altitude vineyards, alpine climates, and glacial soils create wines known for their purity, minerality, and vibrant acidity.

Through a guided tasting, you’ll explore local specialties such as Jacquère, Altesse (Roussette), and Mondeuse, while learning how Savoie’s wines pair beautifully with classic alpine cuisine and modern, fresh food styles alike. Perfect for lovers of crisp, food-friendly wines and anyone curious about one of France’s most under-the-radar regions.

The tasting lineup will be announced closer to the event, once final selections are confirmed.

Participants may choose to attend in person at the Capital Wine School or virtually on Zoom.

In Person Participants

Please note that the building in which we are located does not have an elevator, and there are several sets of stairs to navigate to get to our classrooms on the second floor.

Virtual Participants

Virtual participants may pick their samples up at the Capital Wine School between 12pm – 5pm on July 17.
Virtual participants who are unable to pick their samples up may request shipping for an additional fee. However, due to various factors we are unable to guarantee delivery by the event date. Participants who choose the shipping option are welcome to attend the Zoom session live without samples and will receive a recording of the tasting so that they may enjoy the wines alongside the recording at their convenience.
Requests for shipping must be received at least 7 days prior to class, and all registrations for virtual attendance must be received by close of business the Monday prior to the class.
Additional information regarding curbside pickups will be emailed a day or two prior to class.
You may review our policy regarding wine samples for virtual participants here.

To ensure a quality experience for all participants, each class or course requires a minimum number of registrations. If this minimum is not met, we may need to cancel the session. In such cases, registered students will be notified as soon as possible and provided with options for rescheduling or a full refund.

By purchasing your ticket(s), you agree to our payment, refund, cancellation, and reschedule policy.
