Wine School: Island Hopping In A Glass

Island Hopping in a Glass will be a deep dive into how island terroir shapes some of the Mediterranean’s most compelling wines. From Assyrtiko of Greece to the volcanic Malvasia of the Canary Islands, Cannonau from Sardinia and a tradititonal Sicilian blend, we’ll explore how wind, sun exposure, elevation, and proximity to the sea influence structure, aromatics, and aging potential.

Each wine will be paired with a thoughtfully chosen bite inspired by its island of origin, highlighting classic regional pairings!

Instructor Bio: Victoria Tuzet

Originally from Montréal, Canada, Victoria recently relocated to the Upper Valley after several years in Southern California. A passionate traveler with a deep curiosity for wine, she plans her adventures around the world’s most celebrated wine regions whenever possible. Her wine travels have taken her through Napa and Sonoma in California; Bordeaux, the Loire Valley, Champagne, Provence, and Alsace in France; Valpolicella and the tiny towns of Tuscany in Italy; Spain’s Rioja and Cava regions; Portugal’s Douro and Porto; and even the volcanic vineyards of the Canary Islands.

Victoria spent four months living in Spain, immersing herself in the local wine culture, and later worked the 2022 harvest in France’s Rhône Valley, assisting with winemaking at an organic and biodynamic estate. She holds her WSET Level 3 Award in Wine and is currently completing the WSET Diploma, with expected graduation in 2026. When she’s not talking terroir or vintages, you’ll likely find her watching documentaries, attempting to bake, or crafting between tastings.
