Join international and domestic wine producers and leaders in biodynamic viticulture for three days of masterclasses and tastings at the Quintessa estate in Napa Valley, California. Focused on viticultural practices and principles that build vineyard health and resilience, this immersive and conversational symposium is ideal for wine producers, consultants, viticulturists, sommeliers and wine educators. Attendance is limited to 75 guests.

Our lineup of international winery proprietors includes Chiara Pepe of Emidio Pepe, Federico Ceretto of Ceretto, and Elisabetta Foradori of Foradori. Joining them are biologist Olga Barbosa, geologist and terroir specialist Brenna Quigley, and journalist Samantha Cole-Johnson. Finally, your international team of hosts includes Cambium Formazione founder Adriano Zago, Biodynamic Demeter Alliance’s Daphne Amory, Montinore Estate’s Rudy Marchesi and Quintessa’s Rodrigo Soto.

Over three collaborative days at Quintessa, we’ll look at biodynamic agriculture from a big picture standpoint down to specific practices and practical application. The producers will share knowledge and insights gained from biodynamic transformations on both large and small scales. Biodiversity and terroir specialists will layer their lenses over our conversation, as we explore farming and winegrowing in today’s changing environment.

Attendance is $1,750 inclusive of three days of masterclasses, plus producer-led tasting sessions and locally sourced lunches served outdoors among the vines.
