At Wine² we feel that education is the key to appreciating wine. We believe one can be an oenophile (a wine enthusiast) without being a snob.

Everyone has to start exploring wine in an area in which they feel comfortable.  You may be ready to explore 40 year old Bordeauxs or perhaps you want to start with sweet wines.

Either way there is no wrong place to start and no incorrect tastes, only an accumulation of knowledge.

That's why we offer wine classes, everything from basics to tasting young wines with aging potential. We also offer special server classes for those who work in fine dining. We welcome restaurants to contact us regarding training their staff at either our place or yours!

Below is the current schedule for classes. If you'd like to schedule a private class please let us know.

***Please note that the attire and atmosphere of our classes are casual. However, please do not wear cologne, perfume or other scented products to the class and unscented fabric softener is appreciated. Remember that gum, sodas and toothpaste immediately prior to the class greatly hinder your tasting ability.

Reservations are strongly encouraged for our classes. We limit attendance to 14. If we do not have at least 7 RSVPs we do not conduct class.***

 
All Classes are 7pm on Mondays. Reservations are highly recommended as class space is limited to 14. Prices are per person and include tasting.

Class Schedule

Being Texas we never know whether Spring is actually going to be in the air in late March or not. However, to be prepared we will taste some fresh and fun wines that speak of the changing seasons. RSVP Only $15 

April 5 Cabernet Franc

This grape is one of those allowed in the world famous Bordeaux reds and happens to be the "father" of another famous grape variety. Subtle and often silky, Cabernet Franc is interesting and versatile. As plantings crop up in far flung regions like Chile, Cabernet Franc will be one to watch. RSVP only $18

 

April 12 Wine Smarts Trivia

We have all of these classes and no tests. Some would say that's the perfect kind of school! However, I know some of you have a competitive nature that is dying to flex your wine skills. We will answer wine trivia, do some taste tests, and pair some wines. No matter what your level of experience this is sure to be a fun class. Prizes will be awarded in various categories. RSVP only $15. 

April 19 Loire Whites

April 26 Lesser Known Spain

Spain is the third largest producer of wine in the world and has the most land under vine. Thus this country has a massive variety to offer. This, coupled with good value makes Spain very popular. Though Rioja and Sherry are well known, many grat regions are not. We will taste though some of these lesser known areas and talk about their unique qualities. RSVP only $15.

May 3 White Burgundy

Ah yes, it's that time of year when we taste the home of the most exquisite Chardonnay in the world. Wines so big you could have them with steak, so steely the idea makes your mouth water, so perfumed you sit with one glass for an hour. Join us to explore this marvelous region. RSVP only $50
