What exactly IS it…

A class designed to be the best version of a wine 101 you’ve ever had. By using the basic elements of wine, food, humor and a touch of irreverence to conceptually break down everything that makes wine wine, attendees are able to do more than just get facts to memorize. They are given context by which to understand wine and make judgments for themselves.

The goal is to help attendees understand the basic constructs of wine, get a grasp on the most important vocabulary as well as be able - in simple yet accurate terms - to describe what you are tasting. Furthermore, attendees will learn to predict what a bottle of wine will potentially taste like before you even order/buy it.

As a Level 4 Diploma graduate of and instructor for the Wine & Spirit Education Trust, as well as certified wine educator in the state of New York, this experience builds on academic as well as real-life scenarios to help these often abstract concepts feel approachable, easy to comprehend and embody for one’s own practical use.
