Join this special wine tasting masterclass and roundtable conversation hosted and presented by the global JamesSuckling.com tasting team!

The 2018 vintage stood out for Napa and Sonoma. It was a fantastic year for reds producing high-quality wines that show a wonderful balance and harmony as well as ultra-fine tannins.

It was a beautiful harvest with an even and long growing season that enabled wine producers to make precise personal decisions when to harvest their grapes and make their wines. So many made harmonious and beautiful reds that are unabashedly approachable yet show the structure and balance of fruit and tannins for aging.

Discover the wines of some of the top producers from across the region and discuss with us the quality, style, and history of the 2018 vintage, and if the year represents a new benchmark for America’s most famous wine region.

Amici, Courtney Benham, Newton, Peter Michael Winery, St. Supéry, Penfolds.
