The science of experimental vs. traditional wines

The first of the UC Davis Tahoe Environmental Research Center (TERC) Summer Speaker Series will be on July 15 at 5:30 p.m. with “Experimental Wines vs. Traditional Wines” on Sierra Nevada University campus in Incline Village, Nev.

UC Davis Viticulture & Enology has been bringing the latest research and innovation to the wine industry for years. TERC is bringing one of UC Davis’ biggest innovators, Dr. Andrew Waterhouse, to talk about his research and do a tasting. He will pour a recent experiment to test the impact of anthocyanins (the red pigments in grapes) on wine taste and texture. He will also pour a pair of wines by the same UC Davis winemaker to contrast contemporary and traditional California winemaking.

Tickets are $45 and benefits TERC education and outreach programs. Seating is limited and advanced registration is required. | Tickets tahoe.ucdavis.edu
