Nevada Wine & Grape seminar

From my inbox to you:

Nevada Department of Agriculture
in association with Western Nevada College presents:

Nevada Wine & Grape Seminar

World renowned winemaker and grape grower John Caldwell of
Caldwell Vineyards, as part of his tour of Nevada’s vineyards, will
discuss the Silver State’s climate, soil and water in relation to
growing grapes.

The Caldwell family has been in the California wine country
for 120 years. A viticulture legend, John Caldwell was the first in
Napa Valley to use the innovative technique of whole-berry,
direct-barrel fermentation for his red wines. He traveled in Europe
where he learned about a new wave of viticulture focused on
rootstocks and clones. Twenty-five years later, his vineyard has
grown to 123 acres, 70 of which are planted to vine.

Friday, November 7th, 10 am to 2 pm $25 (includes lunch)
$20 if you register before November 4th
