Are you interested in wine and the wineries of Southern Oregon? Do you enjoy learning about the nuances of growing and winemaking? In this class, we will visit six Rogue Valley or Applegate Valley vineyards and wineries to hear talks from the staff on selected topics. Topics could range from the factors contributing to vineyard loss to how prices are determined. At each venue, the talk will be followed by a directed tasting where students will be guided to sense the differences and characteristics of the wines presented. Come enjoy the bounty of southern Oregon! If you have taken this course before, please understand that we may have to start repeating the wineries we visit. However, the instructor will do his best to ensure new topics are discussed. A waiver must be signed before the first class.
NOTE: A $102 class fee covers all wine tastings. Students must be able to walk on uneven ground and spend all two hours of class time on their feet. Attendance at the first class, which is in-person held at the Campbell Center, is mandatory and cannot be waived. Students must provide their transportation to each venue. This course has a limited enrollment, and there is no assurance that both you and a partner will be enrolled. No guests or accompaniment are permitted.
