Join us at Vermilion to discuss the confusing world of "Natural Wine" and taste through six FLAWLESS examples from the USA!

"Natural Wine" is a term that has been thrown around a lot with very little explanation or clear parameters. It is a trend currently taking over the wine world with easy-drinking, approachable styles that are helping to remove the snootiness often surrounding wine. With wine names like "Hipster Juice," "Brutal," and "City Pop," these wines are definitely shaking up what it means to be a fine wine. Unfortunately, the popularity of Natural Wine and the lack of regulation or definition for what makes a wine 'natural,' has led to a flood of flawed, trend-chasing wines hitting the market. It can be tricky to separate the well-done natural wine styles from the bottles of funk.

Join us for a casual seated wine class where we will decode the world of Natural Wine and taste through six wines that are natural yet clean at Vermilion!

Included with your ticket:

  • Seated wine class with certified sommelier and Neighborhood Restaurant Group Wine Director, Erin Dudley CSW
  • Tasting of six fine natural domestic wines
  • Small serving of artisanal cheese and accoutrement to accompany your tasting
