SUMMARY:Spain's Hidden Playground of Wine\, at Little Washington Winery
DESCRIPTION:Spain is a hot\, dry\, mountainous country with more vineyard land than any other nation on earth. It could be argued that Spain is a viticultural miracle. After years on the sidelines of the world of fine wine\, it is now a major player that we’ve got to learn more about. \nIf you were\, say\, mapping out which wine regions to visit on a vacation to Spain … Even some Spaniards wouldn’t know where to begin. Well\, here’s a secret: No matter where you are on the Iberian Peninsula\, you’re never far from a vineyard—so don’t overthink it. Barcelona is a commuter train away from the historic cava houses of Penedès. Bierzo\, the region wine geeks can’t stop fawning over\, is a pleasant\, quiet drive from León. And the “Sherry Triangle\,” though it sounds a tad foreboding\, can be explored on a painless day-trip from Seville. Whether you’re a casual wine drinker or a seasoned sommelier\, we’ll taste our way through how to weave some vineyard-hopping into your Spanish vacation.

SUMMARY:How to pair Dessert and Wine at Little Washington Winery
DESCRIPTION:Let’s address the impossible pairing! Experts say dessert and wine cannot possibly be put into your mouth at the same time. Technically they are right – better be careful\, some of these flavors are in definite conflict! Wine enhances taste\, creating an entirely new flavor profile. Desserts are no different. Making the perfect dessert and wine pairing can be an incredible way to end a memorable evening. You may be hard pressed to find anyone upset with the wrong wine & dessert pairing (it IS wine and it IS dessert after all). This tasting will show you how to get a perfect pairing every time!

SUMMARY:Wines of Alsace\, at Little Washington Winery
DESCRIPTION:The history of Alsace wine has been influenced by the repeated changes of nationality of the Alsace region\, which has passed from France to Germany and vice versa several times throughout history. Post World War II wine styles in Alsace and Germany diverged\, as Alsace wines remained fully fermented\, that is dry\, intended to be paired with food. In recent decades\, German wines have become drier and more powerful\, while some Alsace wines have become sweeter as late harvest and dessert style wines have been “rediscovered” in Alsace.

SUMMARY:Aromas of Wine\, at Little Washington Winery
DESCRIPTION:Can you describe the fragrance of a fresh peach without saying that it smells “like” something else? Wine is a poetic drink. A complex glass of wine can have a dozen aromas and flavors waiting to be discovered. As wine is exposed to air it evolves and new aromas and flavors reveal themselves. Each varietal has characteristic flavors and aromas: Chardonnay’s buttery citrus aroma\, Viognier’s floral nose\, a French Burgundy “barnyardy fragrance”\, Gewürtztraminer’s kerosene\, Zinfandel’s pepper and spice\, or Cabernet’s chocolate and red berry fruit. Start making greater use of your nose and\, I promise\, you will discover a whole different world of wine! Follow me with a glass in hand\, as we explore the pleasures of using our olfactory system – especially as it pertains to wine!
