SUMMARY:Rose´ Winemaking Class
DESCRIPTION:The OCWS Winemakers Group will be presenting a rose’ winemaking class on Saturday\, August 22 in Laguna Hills.  Ed Reyes\, Chairman of the Winemakers Group will be teaching the class.  Ed has been making rose’ wines for many years and has won medals at the OC Fair Home Wine Competition for his rose’ wines made from varietals such as Tempranillo\, Sangiovese\, Syrah and Primitivo. \nRose´ wines have long been popular in Europe and are becoming more popular here in the U.S.  They are excellent to enjoy in the summer and they pair well with lighter summertime foods too. \nThis class will benefit wine afficionados and winemakers of all skill levels.  All Wine Society members are welcome to attend.  Not sure if winemaking is for you?  This class will give you an understanding of the winemaking process to better appreciate what it takes to produce a glass of fine wine. \nAspiring winemakers attending the class will learn basic winemaking skills and the basic equipment needed to make a rose´ wine. \nExperienced winemakers will learn that making rose´ involves using a combination of both red and white winemaking techniques.  As an added bonus\, if you’re already making wine\, then you already have all the equipment needed to make a rose’.  All winemakers will also appreciate the quick turnaround time as a rose´ wine started in the fall will be ready to enjoy the next summer. \nThe class will last roughly 4 hours.  There will be a short break with snacks served.  We will also taste a variety of rose’ wines to better understand how grape varietals affect color and flavor.  Everyone attending the class will learn: \n\nHow a rose´ wine differs from its red wine counterpart\nVariables that affect the color and flavor of rose´ wines\nDifferences in processing red wines vs rose´ wines\nHow rose´ wines can be made from any red grape\n\nCost for OCWS members to attend the class is $25.  Members can purchase a ticket for a non-member for $30.  Detailed event information and location will be sent to attendees approximately one week prior to the event. \nDon’t miss this fun and unique educational opportunity!  Sign up today on the OCWS website. \nThe OC Fair Home Wine Competition now features a Best of Show award for rose´ wine.  Winemakers\, if you want to compete in this new category for one of the top competition awards\, then you need to attend this class.  Who knows\, maybe your wine will be next year’s Best of Show rose´ winner! \nEd Reyes\ned@ocws.org
