$20.00/person

Event Details

Join Turks Head Wines President and Founder Allison Owen for a guided tasting exploring the vineyards, varietals and winemaking decisions behind her California label. Through four wines, guests will learn how vineyard sourcing, AVA, grape variety and blending philosophy shape what’s in the bottle. Discover why Chenin Blanc is sourced from Clarksburg, Sauvignon Blanc from Sonoma Valley and how Bordeaux-inspired techniques influence the Right Bank Blend, along with the lasting appeal of Cabernet Sauvignon. Allison will also share her journey from a corporate career to launching a wine brand, including the challenges of building in a traditionally male-dominated industry. Ideal for wine enthusiasts, aspiring entrepreneurs or anyone curious about the story behind the label, this class offers a behind-the-scenes look from concept to bottle.
