DO Penedès’ masterclass with Álvaro Ribalta MW

Description

Join Álvaro Ribalta MW for a virtual tasting of the DO Penedès’ region on 30 June.

There are 60 places available to European-based students to receive wines however all students are invited to participate in the webinar.

DO Penedès is the Catalan DO with the oldest historical ties and very strong traditions. Its boundaries stretch from the mountains at the west of the appellation reaching 800m of altitude to the shores of the Mediterranean Sea. Its 2500 ha of vineyards are planted on a diverse palette of climates and soils, resulting in 10 different subregions that add huge diversity to its wines. The range of indigenous varieties such as Xarel·lo, Macabeu or Sumoll cohabit in harmony with other international grapes, perfectly adapted to the Mediterranean climate and the local soils.

This webinar will explore DO Penedès’ characteristics through a tasting of six wines made of six different grape varieties that represent the different styles and terroirs of the region.

Applications to receive samples close at 9:00 BST on 1 June. Successful candidates will be selected by the host and notified the following week.
