Atwater Educational Wine Tasting: Cabernet Franc

Join us in the Atwater tasting room for a series of interactive and educational wine tastings. We will be sampling wines from Atwater’s esteemed vineyard site with wines from around the world. Each tasting will focus on a single varietal or style of wine with topics covering how to taste wine; the history of the grape; wine making techniques; differences in place, terroir, and climate; as well as much more! With only sixteen tickets available per session, these tastings won’t be lectures but engaging conversations.

Cabernet Franc has made a nice home for itself here in the Finger Lakes of New York. The grape is as historic a varietal as it is a delicious wine. A parent of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc is a complex and often misunderstood grape worthy of its ubiquitous and legendary status. Featuring Atwater’s Cabernet Franc.

Everyone in attendance will receive a complimentary glass of sparkling wine and will then taste five wines (approximately two glasses) with a cheese and charcuterie board—vegan options available—to compliment your tasting. Ticket price includes a tasting notebook, pen, and logo item.
