Raise a glass to creativity and connection in this one-of-a-kind event where wine meets design. The Art of Wine at Wineaux is a guided tasting experience led by expert sommeliers, curated especially for architects and designers looking to explore the intersection of sensory storytelling and spatial design.

Through the tasting of three distinctive wines, you’ll uncover how terroir, fermentation, and barrel aging influence a wine’s aroma, color, and mouthfeel—and how these nuanced processes mirror the decisions made in material selection, lighting, and narrative design.

This live, introductory course will inspire new ways to engage clients, enrich hospitality environments, and think more deeply about the stories spaces tell.

Learning Highlights:

✔️ Understand key stages of winemaking and their sensory outcomes
✔️ Explore how terroir and aging techniques impact flavor and experience
✔️ Draw creative parallels between winemaking and design disciplines
✔️ Learn to craft compelling, story-driven presentations for clients

Whether you’re a wine enthusiast or simply looking to expand your creative toolkit, this experience—presented by the AIA Women in Architecture Committee & the Allied Member Committee —offers a fresh perspective on design through the art of wine.
