Sip, Savor and Discover: A Journey Trough the Wine Regions of Southern Italy (Sardinia, Sicily, Campania, Apulia, Basilicata, Calabria)

Whether you’re a seasoned wine lover or just curious to learn more, you’ll dive into the history, geography, and grape varieties that make Southern Italy so unique nowadays - all while tasting your way through it!

From the island of Sicily all the way through to the heel of the peninsula, in Apulia, Southern Italy has a long tradition of producing significant quantities of grapes for blending elsewhere in the country, or of drinkable but unsophisticated wines.

However, in recent years that has changed!

Red and white wines of great quality are now produced throughout these regions, and we invite you to share our journey tasting surprisingly subtle and sophisticated wines from land stretching far into the Mediterranean.

We look forward to taking you on a tour of Southern Italy, from Puglia (Apulia) to Campania, all the way thru to Sicily and Sardinia, sharing glimpses of what may yet be poured to accompany your dreams.

Reserve your spot today and join us for a fun, interactive, and flavor-packed course exploring the southern heart of Italy’s wine country!

When: Thursday 5/29/2025, 6-8pm

Where: Spirited Grape / Capri Cellars, 88 Front St. South, Issaquah, WA

🇮🇹 Join us for a fun and interactive wine
tasting evening, as we travel virtually around the distinctive and wonderful regions of Northern Italy while tasting some of the local specialties

When you think of the wines of Northern Italy, it may be that a crisp, refreshing Pinot Grigio or a big red Barolo comes to mind.

Or perhaps Prosecco is your fizz of choice?

Yet, from Liguria at the coast to Trentino-Alto Adige high in the Alps, these regions offer so much more.

Our Wine Building Block class will break through the often bewildering maze of grape varieties to be found here, explaining their provenance in terms of geography and climate, culinary traditions and the grapes themselves.
