Haus Study: Off the Beaten Vine - Grapes Worth Knowing

This guided wine education course accompanies Sweet Luncheonette’s tasting of six grapes that deserve more space in your glass. Through short, conversational lessons, you will explore an Austrian sparkling Grüner Veltliner, South African Chenin Blanc, Greek Moschofilero, Sardinian Monica, Rioja Tempranillo, and Tuscan Sangiovese. Each wine is unpacked through its origin, style, structure, winemaking, food pairings, and memorable tasting markers, with room for your own reactions along the way. By the end, you will be able to describe what makes these wines distinctive, recognize key clues in the glass, and choose unfamiliar bottles with more confidence.
