Wine Blending Class in the Steedman Cellar

  • Casa del Herrero 1387 E. Valley Road Santa Barbara, California, 93108 United States of America (map)

Get a taste of history inside the Steedman Cellar of Casa del Herrero. Our newest viniculture programming takes place inside the prohibition-era winemaking room that our founder, George Fox Steedman, considered his second favorite hobby.

MARCH 10, 2024  |  12:00-1:30 PM (SUNDAY)

Attendees will learn about the estate and the history of winemaking at Casa del Herrero, walking through George Fox Steedman’s thought process, step-by-step.

Afterwards, you will enjoy a wine blending demonstration to learn how and why different wine varieties are often combined to create unique and exciting wine flavors. We will include a rundown of wine tasting tips and an overview of the unique grapes used in the blends. Then the fun begins! You will work in groups of 2 or 3 to put your new wine knowledge to the test by creating and sampling different wine blends that are custom tailored to your own palate.

While you won't take a bottle of wine away from the experience, you WILL sample wines during the program. The hands-on workshop will help build your confidence as you learn to articulate the tasting notes and different components of wine and maybe even find some new favorites along the way.

Water and light snacks will be available.

Admission is $90.

Space is limited. Reservations are required. Carpooling is encouraged due to our small parking lot. 21+ only. Ticket sales are final.**

**Ticket sales are final. Due to the intimate, exclusive nature of our programming, as well as the need to order supplies in advance, refunds will not be offered.
