On April 29th, The Wine Coach is pouring an explosion of flavor; from the depths of ancient eruptions to the glass in your hand, this curated three-bottle collection explores the profound influence of volcanic soils on wine. Lava to Glass highlights how fire-born earth shapes structure, minerality, and complexity across three distinct regions - Veneto, Crete, and Sicily - each with a deep-rooted relationship to volcanic activity.

Volcanic soils - rich in basalt, ash, pumice, and mineral deposits - naturally limit vine vigor while enhancing concentration, acidity, and aromatic precision. The result is wines that are not only expressive of place, but marked by tension, texture, and unmistakable energy. 

From the ancient basalt flows of Monte Carbonare in Veneto, to the sun-drenched, mineral-rich soils of Crete, to the dramatic, ash-laced slopes of Mount Etna, this collection captures the raw power of volcanic terroir in three distinct expressions. These are wines shaped by fire and time - where low-yielding vines dig deep into fractured rock, producing bottles with striking minerality, lifted aromatics, and undeniable energy in the glass.

This specifically curated Spring 2026 bundle by Laurie Forster of The Wine Coach invites you to experience how these elements translate across white and red varietals, climates, and winemaking philosophies - bringing you closer to the places where earth, heat, and vine converge into something truly unforgettable.
