Description
There is evidence to suggest that the geological history and features of a specific wine-growing area can contribute to the sense of place of the wines or “terroir” that influences the characteristics of specific wines. In this presentation class, we will look at both the geologic features. such as topography, soils, and water quality, of the Bordeaux region of France, and explore the impacts those factors have on the terroir and flavor profiles of wines produced in the region and its sub-regions. Not just about geology, this class will include the opportunity to taste some of the resulting wines from various parts of the region.
