Around the World in Six Glasses: Los Vinos Blancos de España 

Since we covered Spanish red wines last month, this month we’ll be focusing on white wines from Spain. Often considered the lesser wines of Iberia, Spanish whites are typically crisp, tart, and uber-refreshing, perfect for springtime and the scorching sun of the summer.

A Very Special Wine Tasting Event with Kenneth Volk VineyardsFriday, April 19th

A Very Special Wine Tasting Event with Kenneth Volk Vineyards

Ken Volk was the founder and original winemaker of the Wild Horse Winery in Paso Robles, which he sold in 2003 to head south to Santa Maria and start another wine label under his own name. He is also a member of our Mt. Rushmore of Forgotten Grapes due to his love and decades working with what he calls “heirloom” varietals.  We’ll be joined in studio by Barbara Smith, National Sales Manager of Ken Volk Vineyards, who’ll be pouring six of Ken’s favorite Forgotten Grape wines, most of which are only available at their tasting room (and here at Chris Kern’s Forgotten Grapes).

$20.00 per person. Advanced reservations required.
