We run several series of wine classes each year, usually in the fall, winter, and spring, on topics ranging from wine basics, glassware, food pairing, specific regions, and specific wines (Champagne, Sherry, etc.). Our instructors are specialists in their field and love to share their knowledge, and the classes are relaxed and informative.  We will post our fall schedule as soon as it is finalized.

We coordinate with local restaurants to present occasional wine dinners. These events showcase some of the outstanding restaurants in West Seattle, and feature wines specially selected to highlight the menus.
