Flatiron Wine School 2024 Spring Session Announced!
We're publishing our spring schedule early so you can factor it into your holiday gifting! We're super excited about the brand-new spring offerings ahead.
What does quality mean? How can I assess the quality of a wine that might not be my favorite style? Are more expensive wines “better” quality, and why or why not? Do regional classifications matter? This theoretical discussion and semi-blind tasting will focus on the dance of personal preference, wine hierarchy, and producer’s intention, to try and figure out if “quality” is an objective description.
Flatiron team member and Wine Minx®️ Annie Edgerton is fascinated by what makes a wine a “quality” wine and whether that can truly be assessed objectively. Join us for a tasting of five amazing wines as we explore our own preferences—and those the wine world calls attention to—to see if “quality” is something that can be universally tasted, or is it just a sham. (We'll also learn what “FBLIICCATEDX” means!)
This class will begin at 6:00pm on Monday, July 24 and run for approximately 90 minutes as we taste five wines. Wines discussed in class will be available for purchase with a discount available to attendees only. Seating is limited.

Elisa Guérin Has Beaujolais in Her Blood (And Her Wines are Stunning)
Many of us fell in love with wine through Beaujolais — the best versions are simultaneously easygoing and profound. Elisa’s wines offer exactly that kind of pleasure, with transparent red fruit, silken texture, balanced acidity and just a hint of structure.
