Texas vs. California, Rhône-style Grape Varieties
This special wine pairing event provides a fun opportunity to appreciate similarities and differences between wines produced in Texas and California from grapes that thrive in the hot, arid climate of southern France. Six wines served at each session - a white, a red blend, and a second red based on Syrah - grown and produced in Texas will be paired versus similar wines from California.
