The ugly truth is that, just like any other agricultural industry, the exploitation of communities to fill seasonal manual labor positions is common in the wine industry. Our Wine Director, Erin Dudley, considers this the most important issue when deciding which wineries to support, and she has found some incredible winemakers and grape growers who strive to put labor rights at the top of their priority list when making beautiful world-class wines. Let's show them some support this Labor Day weekend!Join us for a casual seated wine class with Erin Dudley, where we will discuss the hurdles and difficulties in responsible labor in the wine industry while sipping six wines made by winemakers doing their best to ensure equitable labor at Planet Wine!Included with your ticket:Seated wine class with with Wine Director, Erin Dudley, CSWTasting of six fine wines Small serving of artisanal cheese to accompany your tastingDiscounts on bottle purchases of all wines tasted - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/alexandria/working-the-vines-labor-in-wine-production/100001991224400785 - **Event Categories**: workshops, wine-tasting, fireworks - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 1 hour - Location: Planet Wine - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 57.38, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Alexandria - **state**: VA - **country**: United States - **location**: Planet Wine - **lat**: 38.8240307 - **long**: -77.0585518 - **full address**: Planet Wine, 2004 Mount Vernon Avenue, Alexandria, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Working the Vines: Labor in Wine Production - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/4a7a61559b5a324a81b6161579b0bbe93be76b5efb3561043a175cc0cc9f3688-rimg-w1200-h600-dce8edf2-gmir.jpg?v=1780687152 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Working the Vines: Labor in Wine Production being held? - **A:** Working the Vines: Labor in Wine Production takes place on Fri, 04 Sep, 2026 at 06:00 pm to Fri, 04 Sep, 2026 at 07:00 pm at Planet Wine, 2004 Mount Vernon Avenue, Alexandria, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Working the Vines: Labor in Wine Production? - **A:** Working the Vines: Labor in Wine Production is organized by Planet Wine Shop. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
