Our guide shared his wealth of knowledge of wine as well as the history of Carmel as we walked through side alleys into hidden courtyards, tucked away benches, and learned all about the characteristics that make Carmel so unique. During the wine tasting he taught us about how different microclimates affect what grapes are grown, neutral oak vs fresh oak barreling, and that there really is no “wrong answer” when describing what you are smelling and tasting because it is such a personal experience. He answered all our questions ( even the ones we were embarrassed to ask since we know very little about wine except that it’s delicious). It was a delightful afternoon. Wonderful guide, great wine, perfect weather and beautiful scenery.
