As we approach spring, what better way to wrap up our second season of our French Wine Foundations series than to showcase some of the finest rosé wines in the world. An international symbol of spring and summer outdoor dining and recreation, Provence rosé wines are crisp, dry, and flavorful "gastonomic" wines that pair well with a broad range of summer dining choices from BBQ to seafood. Join us for a 90+ minute taste-and-learn exploration of the region of Provence and the diverse rosé wines (and white and red wines too).

Join us for a taste-and-learn Masterclass deep dive into the origins and international expressions of Syrah including the Côte Rötie, Hermitage, Italy, Australia, and four Copia Syrahs from multiple Central Coast vineyards and vintages

Join us as we dig into the origins and styles of Cabernet Sauvignon around the globe with a taste-and-learn flight of 6 wines

No prior experience required!!!

Central Coast School of Wine's Open Tasting Group session for anyone interested in sharpening their tasting skills or preparing for a WSET or Court of Master Sommelier's Exam.

Our tasting groups are fun, lively and conversational with the group sharing and comparing their impressions of each wine before we reveal each one. A great networking opportunity and a chance to learn about wines from around the world in a casual, conversational format. Limited to 12 seats per session.

Join us for part 9 of our 10 part wine seminar series where we uncork the stories behind 80 iconic wines from the world’s most celebrated regions.

Our second to last stop takes us to the Pacific Northwest where the Cascade Mountains create a paradox where Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Shiraz thrive in warm sunny vineyards close to 50 degrees north latitude and Pinot noir and Chardonnay are perhaps at their best in the world much further south around 45 degrees north latitude in the cool (but still pretty sunny) vineyards of Oregon. We'll explain the history of these neighboring wine growing states and why the Cascades play such a vial and paradoxical role in how each region is ideal for the grapes they grow.

Join in anytime! Each seminar stands alone so if you've missed one or more of the series segments, you won't be lost. We'll be offering this series on a rotating basis so you'll be able to catch up on the other stops in the near future.

Whether you're a seasoned connoisseur or a curious enthusiast, you'll deepen your knowledge, refine your palate, and gain a deeper appreciation of the artistry in every bottle. Explore the globe, one wine at a time — no passport required.

Join us with special guest Michael Mooney, founder and winemaker at Chateau Margine while he shares his experiences as a founding producer in Paso Robles and a guided tasting of his current portfolio of wines
