Details

Discover the extraordinary world of volcanic wines in this immersive tasting experience that explores how ancient geological forces shape some of the world’s most distinctive and mineral-driven wines. From the slopes of Mount Etna to the volcanic soils of Santorini, you’ll journey through regions where fire and stone create terroir unlike anywhere else on Earth.

Join our founder, Kat, as you explore how volcanic soils—rich in pumice, basalt, and volcanic ash—impart unique characteristics to wine, creating bottles with pronounced minerality, vibrant acidity, and complex flavor profiles that speak directly to their fiery origins. You’ll taste wines from iconic volcanic regions including Sicily’s Etna Rosso, Greece’s Assyrtiko from Santorini, Hungary’s Tokaj, and selections from volcanic sites in Oregon’s Willamette Valley and Northern California.

Perfect for wine enthusiasts looking to expand their palate and understanding of terroir’s most extreme expression. Light cheese and charcuterie will be provided to pair with the wines.

Featured wines are offered at a 10% discount for attendees (15% for wine club members!).
