Do you love biodynamic wines? Are you curious about the principles behind biodynamic vineyard practices? Or perhaps you’ve never explored the world of biodynamics and are eager to learn more? Join us for Part Two of—a two-part deep dive into biodynamic wines—with our friend Bryan Schlessel of Jenny & François Selections.
Together, we’ll explore the foundations of biodynamics, taste an exciting selection of wines from France, Italy, and beyond, and discuss the impact of the biodynamic calendar on both farming and wine drinking. Originally developed by German farmer Maria Thun, this lunar-based calendar guides farmers on the best days for planting, sowing, and harvesting. But did you know it also suggests the best days to drink wine?
The month calendar is broken up into fruit, leaf, flower and root days—with fruit days being the 'best' day to drink wine and root days being the least optimal time. We'll be tasting the same wine lineup on two consecutive Thursday's—one a root day and one a fruit day—putting the biodynamic calendar to the test!
Come join the biodynamics discussion & taste a beautiful lineup of biodynamically made wines from the amazing Jenny & François Selections. We hope you can make it to both tasting events, but tickets for individual tastings are available too.
