What a wild and dramatic time in relatively recent history! And what incredible wine growers now work these lands with shifting rulers and borders. In this new class, we’ll taste some of their wines, and talk shifting politics and borders, historic winemaking traditions, grapes that have totally different names just one town over & more.

Join us to discover these incredible wines available in Ontario like never before.
This session will be led by GW co-founder and one of Toronto's most in demand sommeliers, Krysta Oben who has written the excellent wine lists at Paris Paris, And/ore and beyond and Waterworks GM Alexia David, who comes to us from some of Vancouver's very best restaurants including Michelin-star winning Burdock & Co.
All event tickets are non-refundable. Four free community tickets for BIPOC folks available for every Education Hour. This is at our Waterworks location.
