Virtual Wine Seminar: Wine Lands of Spain

From bright, bubbly Cava to spicy Rosado and silky Tinto, Spanish wine offers unique, delicious flavors. But Spain's influence stretches far beyond her national borders. In this virtual class, Advanced Sommelier Mary Ross will discuss Spain's wine heritage in the Old World and the New, including Argentina, Chile and the original heart of our Californian vineyard.
