Wine in America: Cultivating New Vines and Palates with Rachel Black

The history of wine in North America tells the story of our relationship with Europe, European identities, and an evolving American taste for wine. This talk will also look at wine’s current place in our lives.

Rachel E. Black is an associate professor of anthropology and chair of the Anthropology Department at Connecticut College. Her research focuses on issues of food and wine in Italian and French culture. Black is currently writing an ethnographic novel about the impacts of climate change and the power of cooperative agriculture and love to save a way of life in a wine-producing village in Northern Italy.

Join us for a special wine tasting experience with Vino Crudo!

The tasting will include 4 unique curated wines chosen by Vino Crudo!
