European wine labels can feel intimidating at first, but once you understand the meaning behind DOC, DOCG, and regional labeling, wine becomes so much more interesting. 🍷
For our upcoming tasting on the 27th, we’re exploring how geography, climate, and native grape varietals shape every bottle, from the mineral-driven Cortese wines of Gavi DOCG in Piedmont to the bright coastal blends of Vinho Verde and the revived Pecorino grape from Abruzzo.
Swipe through to learn:
• What DOC & DOCG actually mean
• Why Old World wines focus on region over grape
• How European wine traditions influence flavor and style
Because every bottle has a story long before the first sip. ✨
