You just might belong on our Coastal California Panel at the upcoming SOMM Summit in Seattle. Presented by The Somm Journal and moder- ated by Christopher Miller, MS, our seminar/ tasting will dive into the diverse regions and micro climates of coastal California and broaden the minds and palates of the som- meliers and wine influencers in attendance. On top of all this, we will be sharing this experience with our national readership! Tasting notes, photos and product informa- tion (or coverage of the event) will all run in the October-November 2017 issue of The Somm Journal. Space is limited, so please be sure to secure your spot today. We hope you join us in celebrating coastal California in all of its manifestations. Sunday, July 9, 3 p.m. It's Not About the Fruit With so much emphasis and study spent on single-varietal wines and analysis of indi- vidual grape varieties, we thought we would break the mold and open up the discussion to a wine's provenance, the diversity and implications of terroir and the influence of choices during vinification, aging and bottling. We invite you—and your wine—to be a part of our panel at SOMM Summit moderated by San Francisco Wine School founder David Glancy, MS, which will explore an array of unique terroir-driven wines from one-of-a- kind places, with a range of expressions from berries to basalt, citrus to sand and quince to quartz. For information on having your wine presented at one of the seminars, contact Meridtih May at mmay@sommjournal.com.
