In a recent class, one of my students asked a very interesting question: why do wine makers blend grape varieties in their wines? It is an interesting question and it got me to thinking about a possible class, where we try to discern why and how wines are blended and how blended wines compare to single-varietal bottlings. At this event we will taste and compare several blended and non-blended wines from regions around the world, along with a selection of artisanal cheeses and breads.

Cheers!
