A Rare Experience in Wine Education

Wine Hound tasting classes are not your average evening of sipping wine. They are carefully curated experiences designed for those who value learning, indulgence, and connection at the highest level. Guided by certified wine professionals with years of hosting and pairing expertise, each class blends education with entertainment, leaving guests with both knowledge and unforgettable memories.

These events are intentionally limited, ensuring a private, elegant setting that allows for tailored discussion, personal interaction, and the kind of depth that is rarely found outside of professional wine circles.

What Makes Our Classes Exceptional

• Hosted by WSET-certified wine educators who have curated and led over 50 wine-pairing experiences across, tasting wines from around the world.
  
• We don’t just teach wine—we tell the stories of terroir, culture, and craft that make each bottle extraordinary.
  
• Wines are paired with thoughtfully selected dishes, designed to highlight flavors and elevate the experience.
  
• These are not public workshops or mass tastings. They are private, high-touch classes crafted for individuals, couples, or groups who want more than just a night out.
  

A Glimpse Into the Evening

• An opening pour in a relaxed space to set the tone.
  
• A structured yet engaging walk through several wines, covering tasting techniques, regions, and food pairings.
  
• Guests are invited to ask questions, share impressions, and personalize the learning journey.
  
• Carefully chosen plates designed to complement the wines at their peak.
  
• An elegant finish with final pours, shared stories, and memorable takeaways.
