DESCRIPTION:

Kermit Lynch is a legend in American wine. After opening his Berkeley, CA wine shop in 1972, he went on to become one of the most formative and influential wine importers of his generation. We will discuss Kermit’s passion for wine and what drew him to importing wine from artisanal producers through the lens of his 1988 book, Adventures on the Wine Route. To accompany our discussion, we will have a gorgeous white wine and a red from very old vines. *Note: the reading is optional!* This online session will be led by Tyler Colman, Ph.D., a leading wine writer and wine educator who offers wine experiences through Tylermade Tours.

The selected wines are available through Horseneck Wines. Horseneck Wines is graciously offering a flat rate of $30 for up to 12 bottles. Take advantage of this offer and load up a case!
