TASTING MASTERCLASS
Fun Times Tasting 10 Wines
This is our most fun course. For you, it’s a Saturday afternoon tasting 10 benchmark wines from a certain varietal or classic wine region. Our Tasting Masterclasses always begin with a presentation of the featured grape variety or wine region by our expert instructors, providing valuable background knowledge before the tutored tasting begins.

Prices start at $199. You will taste 10 classic wine styles whilst being entertained and educated by our expert instructors.
Don't forget: when you register for an in-person course, you receive a FREE Fine Vintage online course (value of $99-299 depending on the course) plus FREE access to our extensive video library.
