Twin Cities Wine Education presents the top overview of the wines of Piemonte, including Barolo and Barbaresco!

The Piemonte Masterclass: 2024 edition

It's arguably the top wine region of Italy (don't tell the wineries of Tuscany that I said that!). It's home to stunning and age-worthy reds but also contains a wider variety of wines than people realize.

In this class, we'll start with the history of wine in Piemonte (which will surprise you) and connect the dots of the French influence in the area. Then, we'll dive into the key grape varieties, overlapping the info with the regions you need to know as a consumer.

Arneis, Gavi di Gavi, Dolcetto, Barbera, and Nebbiolo will all be covered, along with a deep dive into Barbaresco and Barolo. The class will also contain Jason Kallsen's valuable "Piemonte cheat sheet," which outlines vintages and favorite producers based on the style of wine you seek out. Extensive handouts and maps will complete your education.

Of course, we'll be tasting a range of incredible wines! This is a no-messing-around Masterclass!

Our Piemonte Masterclass is the top wine class on this confusing topic. You'll leave more confident and excited about these wines than you ever thought possible, guaranteed.
