  • French Wine 101

    Took my boyfriend for his birthday since he’s always wanted to learn more about wines. We had such a great time! Gerome is not only very knowledgeable but incredibly passionate. The wines and cheeses were delicious and now we feel more confident in how to taste wines, describe them, and enjoy them! Cannot recommend this class enough if you’re looking to expand your knowledge of wines and have an amazing time.

    Jerome was awesome! We ended up having a private lesson and it was super informative and fun.
