Want to discover the grandi classici del vino Italiano and explore the viticultural gems in  the mezzogiorno? This wine class will give you a fantastic overview of Italian wine.

The American love affair with Italian wines began a century ago and has only grown since then. More fine wine from Italy is drunk here than anywhere else on Earth… including Italy!

This class will teach you about Italy’s most important wine regions and grape varieties. From Apulia to Tuscany, there is a lot to sip and savor! This fun and delicious wine-tasting class will open your eyes to wines you did not know existed.

If you love all things Italian, make sure to attend. During the tasting portion of the class, we will highlight some of the classics that Italian wine aficionados lust after. We will also show you a few of the best buys.
