Web Opener The world of wine is beautifully complex. With patient craftsmanship and attention to the poetry of nature, wine is a testament to the miracles that can be cultivated from humble grapes. In France, they have a term: Élevage, a word that encapsulates the nurturing of wine from fermentation to the bottle. Yet it goes beyond that, Élevage is about choice, about time, about life. Within these words, I welcome you to your own Élevage. However, in our context, we are not aging wine; we are cultivating your understanding and appreciation of great grapes. The true charm of a wine reveals herself to those willing to unearth the romance woven into the vines, the stories and soul in the soil. So join me as we explore. From vine to wine, we'll unravel the art and the science of food pairing, develop strategies of selecting the right bottle, and learn to ask thoughtful questions about what's in our glass and the process behind producing it. A Sincere Cheers, Trevor Joren
