Wine tasting has a reputation for being intimidating, all swirling and sniffing and words nobody quite understands. This class flips that on its head, turning a night out in Long Island City, New York into something relaxed, social, and genuinely fun. A sommelier leads the way through a rotating lineup of wines, sharing the kind of tips and stories that make it easy to taste with more confidence by the end of the glass.

Nobody needs to walk in as a wine expert, that is the whole point. Whatever the guest of honor already knows, or does not, they will leave with a few new favorites, a couple of great stories, and a newfound excuse to order something other than the usual.
