Description

Everything you always wanted to know about wine, but were too embarrassed to ask!


Enjoy a trip for two to "Vino-Versity: An Educational Wine Store".  This gift certificate is good for (2) reservations to any one session of social wine tasting, "DESTINATION". These walk-around social tastings take you to a specific "Destination" each session, and spotlight the wines from the area!  A 2-hour tasting with as many as 24-28 wines to taste, these "classes" are sure to please.  Cheese and light noshes are also included, along with some take-home educational wine literature.


About Vino-Versity:


Vino-Versity comes to NYC as an educational retail wine shop and a wine "school"!


Opening in September, 2011 on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, Vino-Versity  is the answer to everyone’s query: "Where can I learn about wine?" Firstly, by being a progressive retail store, where “wines are sold within an aesthetic that looks like a Mac computer store which has crashed into a wood & brick winery”, says Shari Schneider, co-founder and GM. “Everything is explained in language meant for wine rookies; we assume that a person has no clue what ‘18 months of barrel aging’ means to wine flavor, or that a Sancerre is always a Sauvignon Blanc. We explain EVERYTHING! Our mission is to eradicate mystery and snobbery from wine.”


Secondly, Vino-Versity  will be offering a full schedule of daily tastings and educational social events (many for FREE), as well as having a classroom devoted to wine lectures for individuals or groups.
