Come learn about and taste wines from one of Italy's most acclaimed wine-growing regions: Piedmont. This is a class you don't want to miss!

Located in northwest Italy, Piedmont sits at the foot of the western Alps. This unique geographical spot lends two key features that influence the region’s climate: the cool Alps and the balmy Mediterranean. Piedmont is one of Italy’s most acclaimed wine-growing regions. Of Italy’s 20 major wine regions, it ranks sixth in highest production volume. While regional names are numerous and complex, there are only a dozen or so grape varieties that highlight the most important wines of the area. Getting to know these grapes is a great way to get acquainted with the Piedmont culinary style.

Featured wines:

  • 2023 La Spinetta Rose
  • 2020 Molino Vino Rosso Dimartina
  • 2022 Scavino Langhe Nebbiolo
  • 2019 Azelia Barolo
  • 2019 Altare Barolo

This class will be led by Laura Elder of Skurnik Wines.

Space is limited, so don't wait to register.

Registration costs $10, but all attendees will receive a $10 voucher to use at the store the day of the event! Light snacks from Premier Gourmet will also be served, and attendees will receive some tasting notes on the items they're sampling.
