Wine Class offers wine courses for individuals with an interest in learning more about wine.
The courses provide a broad and basic knowledge of wine. After taking our courses you will be better equipped for choosing, judging and enjoying wine.
Wine Class aims to improve everyone's knowledge about wine - because, of course, it is important (and fun!) to know what you are drinking.
Attending our wine classes has the added benefit of automatically making you part of our wine community. It is a community that shares a love of wine and has fun tasting wine together long after the courses are over.
About the Courses


WineClass courses are based on an Italian education for people interested in wine. The education is offered by Il Santuccio www.ilsantuccio.it, and has existed for more than 15 years. It is recognized by the Italian Ministry of Agriculture & Food.
The courses are held for six weeks, and there are six different courses to choose from:
-
Basics of Wine, Grapes and Winemaking
-
Wine Regions - choosing the best wines
-
Wine Analysis and Food Pairing level 1
-
Expand your knowledge of special grapes and how they differ in different wine regions
-
Deep dive into interesting wine regions
-
Expand your ability to pair food and wine (only 4 weeks)
We also have one-day courses that are held on a Saturday or a weekday evening, with many different interesting themes.
The unique thing about our course structure is that you learn about all the factors that influence wine in a way that is easy to understand and remember.
Forget WSET - where it's just about memorizing lots of useless facts - we actually teach you about wine and equip you better to choose and judge wine
About WineClass
Each course consists of six lessons (except the second level of food and wine pairing -four lessons) of two hours plus a written or wine tasting test. The lessons are held in the evenings on weekdays, so you can easily fit it in with work and leisure.
The courses can be taken in any order that works best for you. Although you may, for example, want to take Food and Wine Pairing at the basic level before taking Food and Wine Pairing at the next level. And, Ii you are unable to attend one or more classes, you are welcome to attend the missed classes the next time the same subject is offered.
If you complete all six levels, you will receive a "Wine Expert" diploma. But most importantly: you will gain a broad and fundamental knowledge of wine, which you can use to have even better experiences with wine. But even after taking one of our courses, we guarantee your wine knowledge will improve!
ONCE you have taken one of our courses, you will be invited to become part of our wine tasting community. Where we exchange experiences and have a social life with people who all love tasting wines and sharing their experiences. In short, a lifetime of friends who LOVE tasting wines.

About The Teaching
EACH evening at WineClass, the teacher first talks about the topic, and then we move on to the practical part, where you get wine in your glass and the day's topic is "tested" on the wines.
EVERY evening has its own exciting topic with both wine and a teacher chosen specifically for the topic. You will receive a printed slides for each course. The slides provide a brief overview of the individual topics, and there is space for your notes.
Note : Class materials are in English and all teaching is done in English.
Six Week Sommelier Courses
Evening Courses
Educational Wine Trips
Two to three times a year Wine Class leaves Copenhagen to learn about a fantastic and unUSUAL wine regions together. Like most wine trips we will discover and taste many different wines, but our trips are also focused on increasing your knowledge about all aspects of wine in a region you may never have experienced before.
Learning about wine is much more than just appreciating the smells and tastes in your glass. Its about understanding the "terrior" that makes each glass so special. Together we learn from wine makers, and local harvesters about the heart and soul of each bottle of wine they produce.
Our wine trips focus on increasing your knowledge about wine, just like our traditional Wine Classes - but with the added benefit of discovering a new region of the world. And we also guarantee lots of fun with some unexpected twists!
