Virtual Tasting Premier Host

The World's Most Labor Intensive Wines

Cost: $95

This Labor Day weekend, celebrate craftsmanship and dedication with a tasting focused on some of the world’s most labor-intensive wines. From painstakingly hand-harvested vineyard sites to wines that require years — or even decades — of cellar aging, this class explores the extraordinary effort behind some of the wine world’s most remarkable bottles.

Through a guided tasting, you’ll discover wines shaped by extreme vineyard conditions, meticulous traditional methods, and time-honored techniques that can’t be rushed or automated. Along the way, you’ll gain a deeper appreciation for the human skill, patience, and precision that go into these exceptional wines. Perfect for curious wine lovers and anyone who wants to celebrate the spirit of Labor Day with wines that truly earn their place in the glass.

The tasting lineup will be announced closer to the event, once final selections are confirmed.

Participants may choose to attend in person at the Capital Wine School or virtually on Zoom.

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.

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.
