About our classes
CITY SIP is devoted to your wine experience! We personally select the wine based on a lot of criteria (region, price, ratings,) but most importantly, our personal experience with it. At CITY SIP, you are invited to imbibe and share in a unique evening!
All Classes are $40.00 PER PERSON (unless otherwise noted) and include:
CITY SIP Wine Instructional
Like no other you've had! Experienced winos and amateurs alike will both benefit. You will begin your personal journey with the fermented juice of the gods.
CITY SIP Tasting
Each class is based on a theme that could include one or more wineries, varietals, regions, etc....it's different all the time! Expect to explore your senses!
CITY SIP Food Pairing
Let there be cheese! Not only will you gain a greater understanding of how to marry food with your wine, you will impress your friends at your next gathering when you take away delicious recipes to recreate on your own.
Weekday & Saturday classes are from 7pm-10pm
Sunday classes are from 5pm-8pm
Class Locations vary from art galleries to private homes on the Eastside of LA (Silverlake, Echo Park, Downtown) Choose a class, choose a date and we will email you the exclusive location!
