Taking your events from standard to sparkling

Events

Your wine journey starts here!

We created Wine School after years of leading wine tastings for people just like you – people who simply want to know how find a great bottle of wine, pair something delicious to Saturday's steak dinner, and feel confident when ordering at a restaurant. You just want to know how to appreciate a great wine – not write a dissertation on it. 

Our workshops are taught by a certified, professional sommelier and are interactive, educational, and welcoming to all levels of wine knowledge. A fantastic starter for the wine newbie, and an insightful brush up for the veteran wine lover.

All classes are hosted at our Wine School headquarters at Vantage Venues, 150 King St West, downtown Toronto.

Tastings run Wednesday evenings:

Doors open at 6, for a glass of welcome wine and complimentary cheese, and class begins promptly at 6:30. 

Scroll down to see our schedule – and don’t forget, Wine School makes a great gift!

**Please double check you are signing up for the correct class as we are unable offer refunds or exchanges.**

Wine School (in person): all our events start with a welcome glass of wine or a cocktail, depending on the class theme, and a paired snack. Often this is a cheese plate almost too beautiful to eat (almost), but depending on the class theme it could be another gourmet snack.  And of course all the wines or spirits required for the tasting, are also included in the ticket price.

Unless otherwise stated in the individual class descriptions, our classes are held at Vantage Venues, 150 King St W., downtown Toronto.

Virtual Events: We use a password protected, Zoom channel for secure broadcasting. We send you a special link and wine list ahead of time (generally two days before the event), so you can pick up what will be needed for the class. We also include a handy list of recommendations for your atmosphere and other tips to maximize the success of your tasting. 

All other events (virtual cooking classes, wine makers' dinners, Patio Parties, etc.): Each one of our unique wine experiences is its own little snowflake! So while offers and inclusions are always generous, they differ from event to event. But you can find all the information you need under each event listing.

You were great and hilarious, and made everyone feel comfortable. Appreciate your time with me and helping pull this event together.
I had the pleasure of attending the Oceania Cruise event where you conducted a wine pairing. I have to say that your wine and food pairing made a typically ho hum travel information night, spectacular! I have never done a wine pairing. I was amazed at how food interacted with the wines.
Thank you very much for the amazing wine tasting. We all had the most wonderful time. The wines were excellent and your presentation was very entertaining and informative.
