Wine treatments are commonly used to enhance the taste, mouth feel, or aroma of the wines we drink. Learn how to discern the impact with a side-by-side tasting of treated and untreated wines with additions that are commonly used in making wine. Dr. James Campbell and Dr. Andrew Waterhouse will discuss different treatments and their effect on wine through a guided tasting. You can be a novice enologist, a rare opportunity, and seats are limited!
The event will be hosted at the Sensory Theater at the Robert Mondavi Institute on the UC Davis Campus.
Limited seating; 50 seats only. $15, general admission.

Dr. James Campbell was accepted into the Agricultural and Environmental Chemistry program at University of California, Davis to pursue a Ph.D. in 2016, which he recently completed. The focus of his studies under Dr. Andrew Waterhouse were on changes in tannin over the course of grape ripening and how the changes were impacted by the production and interactions with anthocyanins. Currently, he is continuing to work on the kinetics of pigmented tannin formation as well as a reevaluation of the Winkler Index in the context of climate change with Dr. Elisabeth Forrestel.
