Twin Cities Wine Education brings wine classes to Saint Paul's Café Latte!
Rioja Demystified: Crianza, Reserva, and Gran Reserva
Tuesday, May 14th, from 6:00 to 7:30 pm
$65 per person
We're overjoyed to bring TCWE to Saint Paul, where we'll be at one of our favorite destinations: Café Latte on Grand Avenue!
Join us for a great evening of wine education with sommelier Jason Kallsen. In this class, we'll dive deep into the wines and laws of Rioja!
While starting with a glass of delicious white Rioja, we'll discuss the region's history, the key grape varieties, and the evolution of the modern styles of Rioja wine. Then, we'll dive headfirst into the core of the class: a side-by-side comparison of Crianza, Reserva, and Gran Reserva Riojas, along with a tasting of traditional vs. modern styles. This will be an eye-opening tasting for all in attendance, showcasing the impact of oak aging, time, and bottle evolution.
Join us! For this exceptional evening. Seating is limited.
