Join me for a series of four classes at the brand-new Donna Altes Hospitality Training Center at Napa Valley College.

The theme: UNDER $25 WINES OF THE WORLD

I have procured bottles from classic wine regions, made by small family-run wineries farming organic, biodynamic or sustainable vineyards. This is not just a tasting of "value wines." It is also a lesson of key regions and grapes from around the world using honest wines of the highest quality and reputation! 

4 classes.

Wednesday, June 15 - Wines of Europe (see list of wines below)

Wednesday, June 22 - Wines of Southern Hemisphere

Wednesday, June 29 - Wines of North America

Wednesday, August 5 - Blind Tasting, including "Is It $20 Or Is It $80?"

Classes are $50,
