Francisco Wine School in spring 2017.

Wine Scholar Guild to host an ambitious three-city academic tour led by Banfi Wines' most
outstanding winemakers. Each city will host a full-day learning experience that includes in-
depth, razor-focused seminars, culinary pairings, and cash prizes for volunteered competitive
blind tastings.
