Tracy Ellen Kamens, Ed.D., DWS, CWE
Tracy Ellen Kamens adores wine and loves to teach. So much so that when the idea to combine her passion for teaching with her love of wine presented itself, she jumped at the opportunity. As both founder of Grand Cru Classes and Education & Certification Consultant for the Society of Wine Educators (SWE), she is truly living la vida vino. In addition to a solid foundation in wine knowledge (Tracy holds the Diploma of Wine & Spirits and is a Certified Wine Educator), she has extensive experience in education, professional development and event planning, which she uses to craft classes and events that educate as well as entertain. Tracy provides fun and informative wine tasting events for both personal and corporate clients. From staff training and client appreciation events to birthday parties and bridal showers, we can open up the world of wine and cheese to you and your guests. Join us in our beautiful tasting classroom in the heart of Long Island’s wine region or let us come to your home, place of business or other chosen venue. Believing that wine is always fun, we want to make learning about wine an enjoyable experience as you "learn about wine, one glass at a time."
