Event Details

After the end of apartheid in the 1990s, South Africa’s wines reentered the world market. Now, 20 years later, South Africa’s time to shine on the wine stage has definitely arrived. “A significant proportion of the best South African wines today were not being made in 2000,” states Tim James in his comprehensive book Wines of the New South Africa. Today we are seeing racy, intense sauvignon blancs, incredible Chenin Blancs (referred to as Steens), and Pinotage – the love it or loath it grape that we can’t get enough of. Come take a survey of wines and varietals from a land of stunning beauty; Compare Virginia & South Africa Sauvignon Blancs, Learn your steens from your pinotages; explore the world of emerging South Africa wines.

This tasting is for die hard wine geeks. We’ll reveal the best lessons learned from our own wine education as we went about learning to become winemakers. After 6 months of studying, calculating, measuring, blending and, of course, drinking wine, we’ll talk about some of the coolest things we learned. We’ll break down the metrics of judging wines by the 100 point scale and teach you how to get perfect pairings with food nibblers as we use eight 90-99 point wines to discuss each lesson.

Event Details

Is it possible to pair desserts with our favorite mainstream wines? Better be careful, some of these flavors are in definite conflict … but it can be done. While you may be hard pressed to find anyone upset with the wrong wine & dessert pairing (it is wine and dessert after all) it is nice to show off a little knowledge when entertaining guests, not to mention the piece of mind in knowing that what you are serving won’t be conflicting. Come try desserts and wines and learn why some do and some don’t go well together.

Event Details

This tasting is for die hard wine geeks. We’ll reveal the best lessons learned from our own wine education as we went about learning to become winemakers. After 6 months of studying, calculating, measuring, blending and, of course, drinking wine, we’ll talk about some of the coolest things we learned. We’ll break down the metrics of judging wines by the 100 point scale and teach you how to get perfect pairings with food nibblers as we use eight 90-99 point wines to discuss each lesson.

Event Details

Mapping out which wine regions to visit on a vacation to Spain? Even some Spaniards wouldn’t know where to begin. Well, here’s a secret: No matter where you are on the Iberian Peninsula, you’re never far from a vineyard—so don’t overthink it. Barcelona is a commuter train away from the historic cava houses of Penedès. Bierzo, the region wine geeks can’t stop fawning over, is a pleasant, quiet drive from León. And the “Sherry Triangle,” though it sounds a tad foreboding, can be explored on a painless day-trip from Seville. Whether you’re a casual wine drinker or a seasoned sommelier, we’ll taste our way through how to weave some vineyard-hopping into your Spanish vacation.

Oh yeah! Our fall Seafood Saturday at DuCard Vineyards is back!

Event Details

Spend 2 hours with us and we’ll turn you into a certified wine snob! Led by our wine maker, Carl, this seminar is the snob free zone in plain English all about wine. Learn every thing you ever wanted to know about wine including how to taste like a pro, how to achieve aeration perfection, how to choose the perfect bottle in the wine shop, how to pair food with wine and get it right every time, the chemistry of making red versus white wine, what you are really supposed to do with the cork they hand you in a restaurant, how to tell if you are buying a dessert wine made with the juice from a grape or with a bucket load of granulated sugar. This session includes a molecular pairing experiment with a sandwich, 5 chocolate pairings and the Dirt Road Wine Tour.

Event Details

Is it possible to pair desserts with our favorite mainstream wines? Better be careful, some of these flavors are in definite conflict … but it can be done. While you may be hard pressed to find anyone upset with the wrong wine & dessert pairing (it is wine and dessert after all) it is nice to show off a little knowledge when entertaining guests, not to mention the piece of mind in knowing that what you are serving won’t be conflicting. Come try desserts and wines and learn why some do and some don’t go well together.

Event Details

The big class we swore we would never attempt all at once. Come take the triple threat challenge – we’ll taste all of our favorites: cheeses and chocolates and wines all together and see what it does to our palate. Somebody’s got to do it right? If you get the right wine to complement the right cheese or chocolate it can be a match made in heaven! Learning how to appreciate the flavors, as well as being able to pair them well, is a most enjoyable hobby.
