The Pacific Northwest: Guided Wine Tasting
3968 Fifth Avenue, San Diego, 92103
Washington and Oregon round out the West Coast of the United States more than just geographically. They are amazing wine producing states, each in their own right. What sets them apart from many other New World wine producing areas is their ability to straddle the stylistic fence. Oregon and Washington both benefit from the warm stable weather of the West Coast. It is this warm weather that results in the lively ripe fruit of New World wines. However, their more northerly latitude gives them the benefit of cool nights to retain the refreshing acidity that Old World wines are more known for. The Wine Tasting will be guided by Kyle Knox, winemaker, pro surfer, and wine slinger.
