SUMMARY:Wine 101: Learn About Wine
DESCRIPTION:For many students\, Wine 101 is their first encounter with Philly Wine School—and often the beginning of deeper study. The class defines the school’s approach: challenging misinformation\, grounding tasting in cause and effect\, and presenting wine without pretense. Designed by a UC Davis–trained winemaker and continuously refined in the classroom\, Wine 101 has become one of the most widely known introductory wine courses in America\, not because it is flashy\, but because it works.

SUMMARY:Bubbles! The Sparkling Wine Class
DESCRIPTION:Bubbles have a way of making everything feel like an occasion. But beyond the celebration\, sparkling wine has real depth\, variety\, and craftsmanship. \nIn this guided class\, we’ll explore several styles of sparkling wine\, including Cava and Prosecco\, while explaining how they’re produced and why they taste—and cost—so differently. You’ll come away knowing what to look for on a label\, how to buy smart\, and which regions consistently deliver quality. \nEducational\, relaxed\, and designed for anyone who enjoys sparkling wine and wants to understand it better.

SUMMARY:Exotic Wines: The Wine Tasting Class
DESCRIPTION:Obscure\, Rare\, and Shockingly Delicious. \nIs 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. \nIn 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. \nThese 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. \nIf 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. \nBonus: 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.

SUMMARY:Rare Rums & Exotic Cocktails
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the shadowy\, seductive\, and slightly unhinged world of rum. In this wildly entertaining class\, we pour rare\, top-shelf rums—some nearly impossible to find—and teach you how to turn them into unforgettable cocktails. This isn’t a frozen daiquiri kind of night. Think aged\, oak-kissed spirits with history in every sip. \nAt the Wine School\, we believe great drinks deserve great stories. So we start where America’s love affair with rum began: the raucous taverns of colonial Philadelphia. Back then\, rum was more than a drink—it was a political weapon\, a currency of rebellion. From there\, we head south\, boarding pirate ships prowling the Caribbean. We’ll sip alongside buccaneers and privateers\, chasing the sugarcane trails through Central America and landing in Cuba for a taste of their legendary solera-aged rums. \nBut our journey doesn’t end there. We return to America—this time to the palm-frond fantasies of 1930s tiki bars\, where bartenders reinvented rum with panache and a splash of pineapple. These post-Prohibition watering holes helped rum shed its outlaw past and step into the exotic limelight. \nExpect a little history\, a lot of flavor\, and a hands-on cocktail lesson or two. We’ll show you how to make a Mai Tai that would make Trader Vic proud—and we’ll crank the music while we’re at it. \nYou’ll be tasting what one (former) Wine School instructor and bestselling author once called “noble\, fragrant\, complex\, wood-aged rum: the kind of liquor served in snifters and consumed slowly\, even reverently.” \nSound a little over the top? Maybe. But so is rum—and that’s exactly why we love it.

SUMMARY:Germanic Wines: Austria\, Switzerland\, and Germany
DESCRIPTION:Step 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. \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. \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.

SUMMARY:Cognac & Beyond: The Spirits Tasting Class
DESCRIPTION:What’s the greatest invention in human history? The pyramids? The Suez Canal? The space shuttle? The remote control? \nWe’d argue it’s Cognac. \nBorn during the Enlightenment\, Cognac is the distilled soul of wine—refined\, complex\, and undeniably French. While philosophers were debating liberty and reason\, winemakers in southwestern France were quietly creating liquid gold. \nLong revered as the pinnacle of fine spirits\, Cognac (and its lesser-known cousin\, Armagnac) has recently sparked a revival in the U.S. Over the past decade\, American imports have surged by 40%—fueled by a thirst for quality and a newfound appreciation for small\, independent producers. \nIn this class\, we’ll explore what makes Cognac so exceptional—from the grapes and terroir to the stills and cellars. You’ll taste a curated lineup that spans style and region\, including some rare finds from craft producers. \nWhether you’re a longtime fan or a curious newcomer\, this is your moment to experience Cognac at its best.

SUMMARY:South African Luxury Wines -The Wine Tasting 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. \nBut 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. \nIn this class\, you’ll taste some of South Africa’s finest wines and explore what makes them stand out. We’ll cover the key regions\, grape varieties\, and essential facts that will bring you up to speed on one of the most exciting wine countries in the world.

SUMMARY:America’s Best Wine Region-The Wine Tasting Class
DESCRIPTION:Over the past five years\, one wine region has quietly earned top honors—named the best wine region in America four times. Surprisingly\, it’s not Napa or Sonoma. It’s Columbia Valley in Washington State. \nLong a favorite among sommeliers\, this region is producing some of the boldest\, most compelling wines in the country. If you’re a fan of Napa’s structure\, Paso Robles’ power\, or Sonoma’s polish\, Columbia Valley should be on your radar. \nThese wines are big\, expressive\, and unapologetically delicious—the kind of bottles that American wine lovers reach for again and again. It’s time to discover what the pros already know. \nJoin us for a deep dive into Washington State’s dynamic wine country—a guided tasting that reveals the power and nuance of the Pacific Northwest. You’ll explore a range of exceptional varietals\, each shaped by the region’s striking diversity of climate and soil. \nYour journey will span the vast Columbia Valley\, wind through the fertile Yakima Valley\, and culminate in the acclaimed vineyards of Walla Walla. As the second-largest wine-producing state in the country\, Washington boasts over 50\,000 acres of vines and more than 900 wineries\, offering a rich palette of bold reds and vibrant whites. \nMore than just a tasting\, America’s Best Wine Region is an invitation into the stories\, people\, and places behind the wines. Whether you’re a seasoned wine lover or just beginning your journey\, this masterclass offers a fresh perspective on one of the most exciting and underappreciated wine regions in the world.

SUMMARY:Unicorn Wines: The Australia vs America Wine Tasting Class
DESCRIPTION:In the gentle rivalry of legendary wine regions\, the search for the elusive unicorn of wines takes center stage. This month\, we find ourselves pondering a curious match: Yeti against Yowie. These two giants\, each a maestro of their own maceration\, now stand poised in a delicate contest of body and bouquet. Across the vast expanses of vineyard-clad lands\, Australia and America prepare to engage in a refined duel. Will the venerable vintners of Barossa overcome the noble winemakers of Napa? Will Walla Walla’s quiet strength prevail against the robust offerings of Western Australia? And might Strathbogie somehow transform Sonoma’s finest into mere sangria? To unravel these mysteries\, one must simply partake. \nOur classes\, crafted with both joy and discovery in mind\, invite you to explore the distinctive styles of two prominent wine nations. “Unicorn Wines: America VS Australia” is but one chapter in a series of classes that also delves into the subtleties of France versus Italy\, France versus Greece\, Italy versus Spain\, and more.

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.
