Our wine blending lab, led by Brian Lynch of Marietta Cellars lets you become the winemaker and become a participant in the winemaking process. During this hands-on lab, we will break down the components of barrel samples while discussing the origins of the wine, review the varieties of grapes, and take a step-by-step look at the delicate blending process. Next, with a blending kit in hand and four different varietal samples from the winery, we will work independently with an opportunity to blend your very own California Rhone style wine. Finally taste our Marietta Christo and compare to your final blend. Become more adventurous and knowledgeable about the art of blending, understand why soils and climate change tastes and aromas, and leave with a greater understanding of what's in your glass at home.
