June Member Night: Song Trivia — Still vs. Sparkling

Friday, June 12th

Join us for a lively and educational Friday Club Night as we explore the fascinating contrast between still and sparkling wines—with a playful twist of song trivia woven into the experience.

This month, we’ll be highlighting several of our sparkling wines alongside their still counterparts, tasting them side by side to better understand how one grape can take on two very different expressions. From vineyard decisions to cellar technique, sparkling wine introduces a unique set of choices that dramatically influence the final result.

During the evening, we’ll dive into the key differences in the journey from grape to glass, including:

  • Harvest indicators and timing specific to sparkling production

  • Flavor and structure differences between still and sparkling styles

  • The cellar processes that transform base wine into bubbles

As you taste and compare, you’ll gain insight into how acidity, texture, aromatics, and mouthfeel evolve through the sparkling process—while enjoying a relaxed, interactive atmosphere designed for learning and fun.

Whether you’re here for the trivia, the bubbles, or the deeper dive into winemaking, Still vs. Sparkling offers a refreshing way to experience our wines and expand your knowledge.

We look forward to raising a glass with you this June for a Friday night filled with great wine, great company, and a little friendly competition.
