SUMMARY:American History in 7 Bottles: The Tasting Class
DESCRIPTION:“American History in 7 Bottles” is a passageway into the nation’s past\, revealing how iconic alcoholic beverages have intertwined with the very fabric of American life. This course invites you to explore the stories nestled within each bottle\, starting with the humble colonial cider\, a testament to the resourcefulness and independence of early settlers. From there\, you’ll follow the trail of dark rum through the intricate web of the Triangle Trade\, grappling with its far-reaching economic effects and the weighty moral questions it raised. \nAs we journey westward\, American whiskey takes the stage\, embodying the ruggedness of the frontier and spotlighting the clash between federal power and local rights during the Whiskey Rebellion. The narrative moves into the late 19th century\, where lager beer\, with its roots in industrialization\, mirrors the experiences of the urban working class\, shaped by waves of immigration and the spirit of innovation. \nStepping into the 20th century\, the tale turns to Prohibition and the Jazz Age\, where the illicit gin trade stands as a symbol of cultural defiance\, marking the rise of speakeasies and the vibrant pulse of jazz. The course reaches its conclusion with California Cabernet Sauvignon\, a bottle that signals America’s emergence on the global wine stage\, celebrating the rich diversity and creativity that define modern America. \nEach tasting session is a doorway to the past\, offering historical insights and sparking lively discussions on how these beverages have not only quenched thirsts but also shaped society\, economy\, and culture. “American History in 7 Bottles” is more than a class—it’s a story of how what we drink reflects who we are\, leaving an enduring imprint on the pages of American history.

SUMMARY:Classic French Wine: A Wine Tasting Class
DESCRIPTION:Do not deprive yourself of French wines. To omit Bordeaux and Burgundy from your repertoire is to neglect a vital part of your wine education\, a gap that may well leave a permanent void in your appreciation of the finer things. \nIn this class\, you will have the pleasure of exploring the essential regions and grape varieties of France. Bordeaux\, Burgundy\, Languedoc\, Loire\, Rhone\, Alsace—each name carries with it a legacy of flavor and history\, all of which will be captured in the course of a two-hour tasting. Guided by a world-class sommelier\, your experience will be both enlightening and enjoyable. \nThis French Wine class is a cornerstone for any true wine lover. In fact\, it’s almost an obligation for a seasoned sommelier. And rightly so: France continues to set the benchmark for fine wine across the globe. \nThe way we think about wine today is steeped in the traditions that the French refined over centuries. From cultivation to the art of pairing wine with food\, the French influence is undeniable. To understand French wine is akin to reading the literary classics. You might choose to bypass it\, but in doing so\, you forfeit the right to consider yourself a connoisseur.

SUMMARY:Natural Wines: The Wine Tasting Class
DESCRIPTION:In winemaking\, the process is anything but simple. Behind every bottle lie methods as varied as they are surprising—Megapurple\, fish bladder extracts\, rodenticides\, fungicides\, herbicides\, water backs\, enzymes\, acid additions\, and even reverse osmosis all play their part. \nIf you enjoy a glass now and then\, it’s almost certain your wine has been touched by one of these techniques. This revelation isn’t new. Back in 2009\, Keith Wallace\, who founded the Wine School of Philadelphia\, peeled back the curtain on these practices in a series of articles for the Daily Beast. His exposé didn’t go unnoticed—many of his peers\, including Adam Lee of Siduri\, responded with more than a little ire. \nThe debate over natural\, organic\, and biodynamic wines has been brewing since our school first opened its doors in 2001. We’ve embraced this conversation wholeheartedly\, and the essence of natural wines has seeped into every class we’ve taught over the past two decades. Our students have long requested a dedicated class on natural wines\, and now\, at last\, we’ve answered that call. This class is more than a lesson; it’s a journey through the lives and passions of the extraordinary individuals who champion the natural wine movement.

SUMMARY:Great Wine Made Simple: The Wine Tasting Class
DESCRIPTION:This session is devoted to the great grape varieties that make wine a joy to drink and understand. We’ll explore the rich tapestry of flavors they offer and unravel the mysteries of wine labels\, all while savoring some truly delightful wines. By the end of our time together\, you’ll have the confidence to choose and order wine with ease\, ensuring you always get the bottle you desire\, no matter the price. \nThis class pays homage to Andrea Immer Robinson\, a Master Sommelier and bestselling author. Her book\, *Great Wine Made Simple* (Clarkson Potter)\, was published in 2000\, just months before our own Wine School of Philadelphia came into being. It quickly became required reading for our students\, and we still regard it as one of the finest introductions to wine for newcomers. \nAndrea has been a steadfast friend to our school. In 2004\, she honored us by serving as the keynote speaker at a lecture series hosted by the Wine School. The event took place at the Food Network’s Great Big Food Show in Philadelphia\, where she began her talk to a packed audience by declaring\, “You are lucky to have the Wine School of Philadelphia\,” and shared some generous words about our director\, Keith Wallace. \nThis class is a tribute to *Great Wine Made Simple* and our cherished friend\, Andrea. Like her book\, it is designed to give wine students a straightforward approach to decoding the labels of the world’s finest wines. You can expect to journey through the classic wine regions of France\, Italy\, Spain\, and beyond\, gaining insight and appreciation for the wines they produce.

SUMMARY:Exotic Wines: The Wine Tasting Class
DESCRIPTION:**The Quest for Rare and Remarkable Wines** \nThe pursuit of the exotic is as old as the hills\, but when it comes to wine\, the quest takes on a particular charm. As we uncork these bottles\, a simple question lingers: Are these wines deliciously exotic\, or exotically delicious? By the end of this class\, you might find yourself pondering why the world at large has overlooked these hidden gems\, and you’ll be grateful that we have not. \nIn this gathering\, obscurity and rarity are the themes of the day. We’ve traversed continents—both in spirit and in person—to unearth wines that are as uncommon as they are intriguing. Here\, you’ll be introduced to wines from the most unexpected corners of the globe\, wines whose names you may not recognize but whose flavors will leave a lasting impression. Yet\, their exotic origins are only part of the story. These wines must stand on their own merit—they must be undeniably good. \nIf you are one to relish in discovering something new\, something extraordinary\, this class is your calling. But if you find contentment in the familiar embrace of a buttery Chardonnay\, you might find yourself a bit out of place. Some of these wines hail from far-flung regions\, others from grapes that defy the norm\, and some marry both in a way that is nothing short of magical. No matter how seasoned you are in the world of wine\, this experience is bound to expand your understanding of just how vast and varied that world truly is. \nThis class also offers a rare glimpse into the mind of a cellar master and sommelier. You’ll be privy to wines and regions long before they become the next big thing. Take\, for example\, the very first “Exotica” class at the Wine School back in 2002. Among the wines featured was a then little-known Malbec from Argentina\, a wine that has since found its place on the world stage. How the times have changed\, and how fortunate we are to have been ahead of the curve.

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. \nBarrel-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.
