Quench Live: New Cool + Old School: New wines + classic techniques w/Tank Garage Winery October 7 at 5:30pm PST / 8:30pm EST
Live from CIA at Copia, Napa Valley
Join me and Ed Feuchuk of Tank Garage Winery for a taste of new “cool kid” wine styles, based on old school classics. Napa meets Italy with: méthode ancestrale, a technique dating back to the 1500s (Tank Garage’s Pink Motel and the still-unreleased Bastard Love Child against a classic Lambrusco di Sorbara), and appassimento, a Roman-era technique (Tank Garage’s Aurea Dea against a Vin Santo and an Amarone). Centuries-old methods, new-school twists, side by side so you can taste the continuity, the variations, and the endless fun pairing possibilities.
Speaking of food: the Grove is handling pairings, and Erik Swanson, Tank Garage’s assistant winemaker, may even be in the show kitchen for a demo.
