Explore the versatility of Gamay with a tasting focused on Beaujolais, from classic Villages to Cru expressions. To mix things up, we’ll also include a couple of surprise Gamay wines from outside the region for comparison. This is a great opportunity to see how terroir shapes the character of this often underrated grape.

In Person Participants

  • Please note that the building in which we are located does not have an elevator, and there are several sets of stairs to navigate to get to our classrooms on the second floor.

Virtual Participants

  • Virtual participants may pick their samples up at the Capital Wine School between 12pm – 5pm on February 27.
  • Virtual participants who are unable to pick their samples up may request shipping for an additional fee. However, due to various factors we are unable to guarantee delivery by the event date. Participants who choose the shipping option and who do not receive their wines in time for the live session are encouraged to wait and taste their wines along with a recording of the class session.
  • Requests for shipping must be received at least 7 days prior to class, and all registrations for virtual attendance must be received by close of business the Monday prior to the class.
  • Additional information regarding curbside pickups will be emailed a day or two prior to class.
  • You may review our policy regarding wine samples for virtual participants here.

To ensure a quality experience for all participants, each class or course requires a minimum number of registrations. If this minimum is not met, we may need to cancel the session. In such cases, registered students will be notified as soon as possible and provided with options for rescheduling or a full refund.

By purchasing your ticket(s), you agree to our payment, refund, cancellation, and reschedule policy.
