Embark on a vinous journey with the Wine School of Philadelphia’s new class, “Saved From Extinction: 7 Grapes That Rose from the Dead.” This unique course delves into the stories of seven grape varietals from France, Italy, and Spain that were on the brink of oblivion. Through the dedication of visionary winemakers, these grapes were nurtured back to life, safeguarded, and cultivated, eventually earning their place in vineyards and glasses worldwide.
Participants will explore the rich history, intricate winemaking processes, and distinctive flavors of these rare varietals. The class not only offers a taste of exceptional wines but also celebrates the resilience and passion of those who have committed to preserving the diversity of the wine world. Join us to rediscover the old through new eyes and to celebrate the revival of these precious grapes. This experience promises to ignite a fervent appreciation for the art of winemaking and the preservation of its history.
