Explore rosé wines from France, Italy, Spain, Portugal & Greece while learning how climate & technique shape this vibrant style.

Curio Wine School: Rosés Around the World

This survey-style class is a global journey into one of the most misunderstood, and underestimated, wine styles: rosé. Far more than a pink summer pour, rosé is a deeply expressive category of wine that reveals its story through place, grape, and winemaking method.

Together, we’ll taste a flight of rosés from a range of regions: France, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Greece, and beyond. Along the way, we’ll demystify winemaking techniques like saignée, direct press, and cryo maceration, and explore how climate, culture, and tradition shape the final glass.

Expect to leave this class with:

  • A deeper understanding of rosé production methods
  • New vocabulary and frameworks to talk about wine like a sommelier
  • Confidence in evaluating rosé styles, from delicate and dry to juicy, lush, and even effervescent
  • A new appreciation for rosé’s place in the world of fine wine

Whether you think you know rosé or are just beginning to explore the category, this class will expand your palate and perspective. You’ll experience how this “in-between” color can yield wines of nuance, beauty, and terroir—beyond the blush.

Reserve your spot today!
