Grapes to Glass: Wine Education and Tasting Series

Grapes to Glass is a four-session Wine Education and Tasting Series. You will use your senses as you learn about the important elements of wine production, from grape-growing to enjoying the finished product, with a special focus on B.C. wines. Over the course of these sessions, you will taste over a dozen unique wines and tour the UBC Wine Library – home to more than 4,000 unique bottles of wine.
