Thomas Jefferson was one of the earliest proponents of American viticulture, and though he never saw the wine industry flourish in the fledgling United States, his inspiration was a powerful force in helping us arrive where we are today - one of the great wine producing countries of the world. With this class we offer you a wonderful introduction to the joys of wine, surveying 14 different wines in our exploration of how wine is made around the world. This is our first offering in Washington, DC and we couldn’t be more excited to bring the Fine Vintage approach to this classic course in the nation’s capital.
