This fast-paced, comprehensive 1-day intensive workshop focuses on important foundational areas for personal and professional success including blind wine tasting analysis, food & wine pairing, and professional wine service techniques. Created by Master Sommelier David Glancy, this class is perfect for students studying for beginning and intermediate level sommelier exams and those who want to improve their performance on the job. Enthusiasts also enjoy this eye opening day of personal development! Taste over 12 wines throughout the workshop.
Students looking for a slower pace, deeper study of these topics or a more comprehensive look at all aspects of the beverage industry should consider our Somm Essentials program.

We've recently invested in some serious AV technology upgrades to create an integrated Hybrid Room/Zoom experience for all students. Both "Roomers" and "Zoomers" are able to engage with us and each other during these live classes. Recordings are also available after the class. Whether you are excited to return to our beautiful venue in person with wine in your glass or are enjoying the convenience of home learning with a tasting kit, you can choose the experience that's right for YOU!
