Chile: Ancient & Modern Wines at the Philly Wine School
2026-11-21 17:00 - 18:30 | The Wine School Of Philadelphia, 127 S. 22nd St., Philadelphia, PA, 19103, United States
Uncover the Wines That Time Forgot
The vines came first. Long before Chile was a republic, grapes were growing here. Some of those ancient vines still are, untouched by rootstock or fashion, hidden in valleys where the 21st century barely leaves a trace.
This isn’t the Chile you think you know. Forget the bargain-bin Merlot. This class is a journey into the true heart of Chilean wine, where volcanic soils, coastal fogs, and ancient vines collide.
We’ll start with the regal Cabernet Sauvignons of Maipo, where Bordeaux dreams were replanted and reimagined. Then we head south to the haunting old-vine País of Bio-Bio, a grape once dismissed, now revered—the ancestral thread that links the Old World to the New. From the cool-climate elegance of Casablanca Pinot Noir to the rustic soul of Itata’s Carignan and natural wines, you’ll taste a living archive of Chilean identity.
This class is for the curious. For those who want to drink history, terroir, and rebellion in a single glass.

Exotic Wines: The Wine Tasting Class at the Philly Wine School
2026-11-14 19:30 - 21:00 | The Wine School Of Philadelphia, 127 S. 22nd St., Philadelphia, PA, 19103, United States
Obscure, Rare, and Shockingly Delicious.
Is it deliciously exotic—or exotically delicious? Either way, we’re popping corks on wines that most people have never heard of… but won’t soon forget.
In this class, the rule is simple: the more off the radar, the better. We’ve crisscrossed the globe—figuratively and literally—to track down wines that defy the mainstream. Some are from regions you didn’t know made wine. Some are crafted from grapes you’ve never seen on a label. A few are both. Those are the real gems.
These wines aren’t just rare curiosities. They’re genuinely thrillingly good. That’s the bar. We’re not here to sip something weird just to say we did. These bottles earn their spot.
If you’re the type who’d rather try something bold than stick to the usual buttery Chardonnay, you’re in the right place. Expect to leave this class with a few new obsessions—and a broader sense of how wild and wonderful the wine world really is.
Bonus: you’ll also get a look inside the mind of a cellar master. The kind of wine nerd who spots trends a decade before they show up on wine lists. Case in point: our first Exotica class in 2002 featured an unknown wine from Argentina made with a strange little grape called Malbec. Yeah. That happened.

Spain Vs. France: The Wine Tasting Class at the Philly Wine School
2026-11-14 16:00 - 17:30 | The Wine School Of Philadelphia, 127 S. 22nd St., Philadelphia, PA, 19103, United States
We are pitting two great wine countries against each other in this wine-tasting class. It’s Spain versus France in a battle of the vines! And it will be delicious mayhem: Bordeaux versus Rioja, Châteauneuf-du-Pape versus Priorat, and so much more.
It will be an all-out wine war, and it’s your chance to play peacekeeper. Which side wins will be up to you.

Our Top Winemakers: The Wine Tasting Class at the Philly Wine School
2026-11-12 19:30 - 21:00 | The Wine School Of Philadelphia, 127 S. 22nd St., Philadelphia, PA, 19103, United States

In this class, we are featuring the best of the best from our alumni community. It is a chance to discover the remarkable talent that has come out of Philadelphia and is now creating magic from Napa Valley to New Zealand.

The Devil’s Playground: The Wine Tasting Class at the Philly Wine School
2026-10-30 19:30 - 21:00 | The Wine School Of Philadelphia, 127 S. 22nd St., Philadelphia, PA, 19103, United States
In Philadelphia, October 30th isn’t just any night—it’s Mischief Night, that semi-feral tradition with roots tangled in both colonial history and teenage impulse. Around here, it’s a time for troublemakers to emerge from the shadows. But instead of egging houses or TP-ing trees, we’ve devised a far more delicious form of mischief.
Join us for a wicked night of wine and wonder, as we unleash the darkest, heaviest, most full-throttle reds from our cellar. These are the wines that haunt wine lists and crush lighter fare with a single pour—the high-alcohol monsters, the mouth-drying tannic beasts, the dark-as-sin bottles that make grown sommeliers weep (with joy, of course).
In this one-night-only class, we’ll taste through the heavyweight contenders of the red wine world—and back it all up with a dose of science. Which wine actually has the most tannin? Which one’s so full-bodied it’s basically a meal? We’ll explore the chemistry of wine structure and why some grapes carry the devil’s weight better than others.
If you crave power in your glass, this is your kind of mischief.
