In the wine business, timing is everything; and sometimes
requires a leap of faith. What we plant, the styles of wine we
make and how we go to market are complicated and dependent on a
number of different factors.
This panel of experts will review three new and potentially
suitable wine varieties for California, from the lens of the
grower, the winemaker and the marketer. Can varieties like Chenin
Blanc, Vermentino and Tempranillo add a new layer of commercial
success to the big four? We’ll explore this question and more
with an eye to grower risk-management, stylistic range and
marketplace flex power in this dynamic tasting session.
