Join us for free as we get to know a little more about Spanish red wines with host Ian Blackburn and special guest John Bauccio. We'll be taking a deep dive into 3 different Spanish reds! A great old vine Spanish Garnacha, and two different Riojas from world famous R. López de Heredia! Learn how the wines were made, get behind the scenes information, ideas and influences. Each week we will learn the stories of the different wines, the brands, the grape, the history, the insights.

JOHN BACCIO - WINE EDUCATOR
John’s love of wine began in his food obsessed Italian-American family, where he never knew a time when wine wasn’t on the dinner table. After a career path that included the music business and working in nearly every type of restaurant job, John graduated from The California Culinary Academy in San Francisco. His formal wine training began at Robert Mondavi Winery where he rose to the level of Senior Wine Educator and specialized in teaching both the public and the restaurant/retail wine trade about wine and food. After Mondavi, John worked as a buyer at San Francisco’s famed Ferry Plaza Wine Merchant. Eventually moved back to Los Angeles, where he has worked in restaurants as a wine director and staff educator. In addition to teaching wine in the culinary program at a local community college, John proudly represents WineWise and their devoted European wine producers.

Why Zoom Into Wine?
At WineLA we have hosted wine tastings and educational seminars for over 20 years. While we are not able to get together and toast in person at this time, we've innovated to continue our mission in cultivating and sharing the wine lifestyle.
It's raw, unedited, un-produced, but well practiced and personal. I can’t promise I won’t go political …can’t promise I won’t get drunk…I can’t promise the wines are going to be the best you’ve ever had...but they will be really good!!! I can promise to be 100% authentic, to tell the story of the wine, and to share my passion and knowledge with you.
Each Zoom Into Wine experience is distinctly different. Some will have a large number of bottles, some will have special guests! A distinct story told with every wine along with a few laughs and some industry insights, then around minute 45…IT’S THE NO RULES ZONE! The planned portion of the experience concludes and who knows what we'll be talking about, but wine will influence the discussion and direction.
DON’T WAIT! Wines may sell out, while supplies last!!
