SUMMARY:Office Hours: Insider Access for Members
DESCRIPTION:Once a month\, members of the Wine School get exclusive access to Keith Wallace\, founder of the Wine School of Philadelphia\, a former winemaker\, winery consultant\, and one of the top sommelier instructors in the country. \n\n\n\nOffice Hours is your chance to connect directly with Keith in a casual\, open-door setting. These sessions are designed for Wine School members who want expert guidance\, honest insight\, or just some time to talk shop with someone who knows the wine world inside and out. \n\n\n\nThis is not a private one-on-one; it is a shared space where multiple students may attend. If you’re discussing confidential or business-sensitive topics\, an NDA can be provided to ensure discretion for everyone in the room. \n\n\n\nWhy attend?– You need help navigating course materials or preparing for an exam– You’re planning a career move in the wine industry and want real guidance– You’re launching a wine-related business and want feedback– You have winemaking or vineyard questions that need a technical answer– You want to explore an idea—or a problem—with someone who’s been there– Or you just want to geek out about wine with the guy who’s trained thousands to do the same \n\n\n\nEvery session is unique. Come with questions\, ideas\, or curiosity. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:South Africa vs France: The Wine Class
DESCRIPTION:The first South African wines we tasted came shortly after the fall of apartheid. Even then\, the potential was obvious—ancient soils\, a Mediterranean climate\, high elevations\, and a wealth of old vines. A rare combination in any winegrowing region. But it wasn’t until around 2010 that that potential truly began to take root. Today\, names like Swartland\, Walker Bay\, and Paarl should be on every wine lover’s radar. In this class\, we pit some of our top picks from South Africa against the classics of France! Let’s see how this up-and-coming wine region holds up to the most famous wine country in the world!

SUMMARY:Bourbon! The Whiskey Tasting Class
DESCRIPTION:Bourbon! is a tour-de-force of one of our favorite drinks. Learn how it’s made\, what makes for a great bourbon\, and some brands to look out for while tasting some fantastic examples. A generation ago\, they called it brown liquor. Now\, we call it the angel’s share.   Do you know what all great liquor has in common? They are aged for many years –sometimes decades– in charred white oak barrels. Barrel-aged booze is what this class is about. This is the class for boozehounds looking for the next great experience. From Tennessee Bourbon to Philly-made Bourbon\, you will learn about (and taste) a fantastic selection of barrel-aged booze. This class features some of our favorite bourbons but includes a how-to to make great cocktails. We’ll even show you how to turn white spirits into your signature whiskey.

SUMMARY:Germanic Wines: Austria\, Germany\, and Beyond!
DESCRIPTION: \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nStep off the beaten path and into the heart of Central Europe’s most compelling wine regions. In this class\, we’ll dive deep into the wines of Austria\, Switzerland\, and Germany—three countries that share more than a linguistic root. Their vineyards are shaped by ancient rivers\, steep hillsides\, and centuries of cultural exchange. \n\n\n\nSwiss wines remain elusive outside their borders\, yet insiders know: these high-altitude bottles offer purity and precision like few others. Austrian wines are a study in extremes—blazing acidity\, bold reds\, and whites with structure and soul. And then there’s Germany. Revered for Riesling\, yes—but there’s far more to discover beneath the surface. \n\n\n\nThis isn’t just a tasting—it’s a reeducation. Most Americans rarely get access to these wines. In this class\, you will. Join us and see why sommeliers\, collectors\, and wine scholars are obsessed with the Germanic wine world. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
