USQ | Old World vs. New World: White Varietals
June 24 2019 | 6:30 PM - 8:00 PM13 E. 13th Street, New York 10003
The terms “Old World” and “New World” are often discussed when tasting wine, especially when deciphering the location of the wine’s origin. The differences are derived from different wine making practices, location, climate, and the effect of the land (terrior) on the grapes and wine itself. So does this really alter the taste and style of the wine that much? Yes - in this class you will learn the key differences between Old and New World wines, including alcohol content, acidity, oak usage, and fruit flavor profiles for white wines from across the globe. This class is a perfect entry level class for the beginner looking to immerse themself in the world or wine and the professional, looking to hone their blind tasting skills and wine knowledge.
