PRIVATE EVENTS
We offer a variety of private events:
from Dinner Parties to Corporate Team Building events to Classes and more
We believe wine tasting should be about two things:
Curiosity and Fun!

WHO: Taste wines with your family, a group of friends, your work colleagues…Whoever you’re with, we’ll make it a memorable time!
WHERE: We offer both virtual tastings via Zoom, as well as in-person tastings in Philadelphia and adjacent states including New Jersey, New York, Delaware, Maryland, and beyond. Two weeks advance notice needed for in-person tastings.
WHEN: Choose a date that works for you. Each tasting is typically 1.5-2 hours long.

Ever wonder how sommelier’s can identify wine without seeing the bottle? We'll go slow and steady, exploring the basic structure of wine, regional style, and grape typicity, so that you'll feel comfortable describing acidity, tannin, alcohol, aromas, and more
-
A tour through a countries wines, flavors, and styles is a great place to start. Whether it’s an overview of the wines of Spain, Italy, France, or Germany, or perhaps a closer look at more specific regions like Sonoma, Piedmont, Burgundy, or Catalunya. The only passport you’ll need is your glass
-
You may have heard the word 'mineral' thrown around as a tasting note. You may have heard how the soil and bedrock of a vineyard can influence the character of a wine. In this tasting we'll dive into the dirt and explore some of the major soil types found in your favorite wine regions and how those affect what's in your glass.
-
What to pair with your favorite dishes? What to bring to that BYO? We’ll take you through the principles of food and wine pairing. We provide a locally sourced array of snacks and bite to help bring out the best flavors in both your food and your wine.
-
Understanding the difference in style and climate through the lens of a single grape is paramount. Here we compare the same grape grown in different regions: California Pinot Noir vs. Red Burgundy, New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc vs. Sancerre. In this fight there are no winners or losers, just wine lovers.
-
Want help curating a unique tasting for your friends and family! Whether it's your favorite music, movie, or cuisine, we can pair wine with anything!
