I've taken 2 wine classes (wine 101) and I'm already looking to take the Wine 202 class. This is my type of wine class because: - It's located near Midtown Manhattan - The instructor is really chill - You are given different games to play which helps you remember the different wines and information about them - There's a variety of wines - There is no spit bucket (so chances are you'll get lit) - It's an open space so you get to meet other wine lovers Both wine classes I've taken have been on Fridays because you do tend to get a wee bit tipsy testing all of the wines. I first learned of the class through Groupon so I suggest looking there first if you are interested in taking a class here but either way if you interested in learning how to differentiate between the age of wines, the percentage of wines and practice your sense of smell (to determine what's in the wine) this place is for you. read more

WineO Club - Wine Tasting Classes Near Me - New York, New York

We took the WineO 101 class on a Friday night, and boy was it a good time. The teacher and owner of the company, Mark, was clearly very knowledgeable of his craft, and his love for what he does is apparent. Students of the class are allowed to enter the rooms 10 minutes before the start of the class. The emails they sent out before the class stated that the class starts promptly at the scheduled time. We started about 7 minutes after the scheduled time, which I actually didn't mind because it gave us a chance to talk to our new friends were seated with. We had the chance to listen to Mark talk about wines, taste 5 different wines along with 4 different cheeses and some cured meat, as well as ask Mark questions we had about wine. We also played a few games for a small prize (drawstring bag with the WineO Club logo on it). It was a really fun way to spend a Friday night. The reason for the 4-star review and not a 5 is because Mark spoke wayyyyyyyyyyyyy too fast. My whole group had trouble keeping up with the information he was sharing, and it was a little annoying because we were all there to learn about wines. The class was supposed to be 2 hours long, but start to finish, it was closer to 1.5 hours, so I'm not sure what the rush was. Definitely not a dealbreaker, and I would definitely go back for another class, but I sure do hope they slow it down next time. read more

I loved this class, and I would recommend it to anyone who wants to have a great time while trying some wines. We were there for the 101 class which I would recommend getting a Groupon for (which makes it $38.50 instead of the $75 website price). In the middle of the class, I had messaged my roommate that it was worth it because she was thinking about going the following month. Mark was an enthusiastic instructor that helped explain wine pairings and differences between wines in a simple and easy-to-understand way. I thought it was pretty inspirational that he decided to start the WineO club after quitting his job in engineering. You'll leave the class having finished quite a few generous glasses of wine which makes it all the more fun. I could definitely taste a difference in the pairings which I had never really done before. Although I didn't really enjoy anything but sweet dessert wines before, I'm more eager to try different wines now. read more

WineO Club - WineO 101 Class - Wine Tasting Classes Near Me - New York, New York

Awesome seems to be the theme of the reviews and I'd have to agree. This place is awesome. It can be good for friends, coworkers, and any type of celebration you can think of. The venue is homey, while being nice and spacious. The host, Mark, was incredible. So funny and knowledgeable. I probably learned more yesterday, than I did in 2 of my college electives. 2 of my biggest non-wine takeaways: 1. I never knew what fruit actually smelled like. 2. Truffle cheese is amazing and should be protected at all costs. The wine was great. Even more so now that I have an understanding of what I am consuming and how to fully absorb what was being offered; as well as how to pair. 5/5. I'd definitely recommend this to anyone who has taste buds. read more

WineO Club - Wine Tasting Classes Near Me - New York, New York

This is a fantastic wine tasting class, I would totally recommend it to everyone I know. Founded in SF, WineO recently launched in NYC and just moved to a new space that's super simplistic but cozy. There are two long tables and it seats about 20-25 people I would say? The class size is perfect for you to enjoy time with friends, while still being able to interact with the instructors and hear everything they're teaching you. Mark is super knowledgeable and personable, so you'll get none of that snobby crap here. He weaves in funny stories of how he started on this journey to becoming a sommelier, and easy ways to taste wine like a pro :). His story will honestly inspire you to chase after your dreams and to pursue a job you actually enjoy. They are very generous pourers (they tell you they pour until there is no more), so get ready to down some wine!!! In the beginning of class, we were asked to identify 10 scents that were bottled up in these teeny glass containers. To be honest, all of these smelled the same to me (weirdly, I smelled tequila every time and I hate tequila) - amazing how sommeliers can do this and pass those tests. Mark did tell us that he couldn't really do this in the beginning either, so he started to train himself while buying groceries at the supermarket. Nobody really stops to smell any of the fruits and produce, like REALLY smell while shopping for groceries, so this really helped (pro tip! haha). On the tables, they laid out wooden boards of cheeses (goat, brie, truffle, gruyere), crackers and salami. We had to ask them where they got everything because all the cheeses tasted so good, especially the sweet goat cheese! Along with that, there's a long menu that lists all the wines they're serving, plus which cheese would pair the best with them. He then proceeded to teach us to do the "Look, Smell, Taste" test for the wines, pretty good basic knowledge for whenever you want to know if you're getting good wine at a restaurant, or getting tricked into paying a fortune for a crappy wine. All of this is printed on sheets that you can take notes on to take home :). You are encouraged to join The WineOClub, their subscription service that gives you 3 bottles of premium wines for just $47, which is a really good price compared to other services that also might throw in a crappy wine...They also don't charge you monthly and allow you to personalize it, they will only deliver if you notify them that you want a delivery. Might think about doing this soon. I can already see this as being a hit for either a bridal shower or bachelorette kick-off :) I believe they're looking into WineO201, 301 (more advanced classes), so definitely don't shy away from trying this place out even if you're pretty knowledgeable about wines already. Thanks for the great class, Mark! read more

I came here because my friends bought me groupon tickets for my birthday and I was blown away by the experience! I went with my boyfriend, who doesn't even like wine, and even he LOVED the class. Before I went I had looked up this place on yelp and was surprised to see EVERY review as 5 stars but now I completely understand why. Mark was a FANTASTIC instructor, super engaging and funny and really made sure we were all having a great time. He taught us a lot about wine without it feeling like a lecture and made the two hours go by so fast. It was clear he was very knowledgeable about wine but was passionate and excited to share with us his knowledge but also made sure to answer any questions we've ever had about wine. I would highly recommend this to everyone!! Go by yourself, with a significant other, or big groups because I can guarantee you'll have a great time. Also the cheese was delicious so that's a huge plus. read more

WineO Club - Games, cheese, crackers, and wine! - Wine Tasting Classes Near Me - New York, New York

Excellent event at WineO last night. Mark was great fun, super knowledgeable and doesn't make wine tasting a pretentious exercise. I loved the tips and hacks that he showed us in order to make us better tasters, and he gave out sheets with info so we could take them away. he also taught us some of the culture around wine, which was a nice touch. they have a great space, very informative approach and the tastings included full glasses as well as snacks which were matches for the wines we were tasting. we even got an extra wine to try! definitely recommend going with a group. they also send out wine mailers which you can choose the frequency as well as type of varietals you prefer so you can try a bunch. Very affordable as well, and flexible in terms of the way in which they choose and send you wines. thanks mark! read more

Everyone should take this fun and engaging class. Mark is funny, sharp and super informative. He teaches you some key basics on wine that you can actually apply in real life. The WineO 101 offers different white/red wines paired with cheeses. So delicious! We played a fun game and actually got to meet so many cool people. Thanks Mark for bringing us together with wine and conversation. read more

Came here for a Yelp event and highly recommend to anyone looking for a uniquely fun experience. As a beer preferring drinker myself, I can attest that prior experience with wine isn't necessary to enjoy the event; just a curiosity and an open mind. Mark is an awesome host and kept us laughing throughout. His backstory is also compelling - he quit his job and pursued his passion for wine by becoming a sommelier, starting a wine club niche with above average offerings (much better than two buck chuck) and better serving sizes (it'll get ya drunk!). Wines being poured are paired with a variety of cheeses laid out on the table. It included brie, goat and my personal favorite - the gloriously delicious truffle cheese. I finally understand why truffles are expensive (and totally worth it). Bam! Truffle flavor explosion in yo mouth! There was also a competitive component where we broke off into teams and had to guess characteristics related to a wine or type of fruit in a scent. The event is educational with good takeaway tidbits even for your less nuanced wine drinker. I may whip out some knowledge next time I'm drinking wine with friends and impress them! read more

This was an unexpectedly great experience. I've done lots of wine tasting before, but they've been NOTHING like this! I left WineO Club better educated in wine, a belly full of laughter, new friends and knowledge to impart in old friends. I'm definitely going back for level two! read more

Are you tired of going out with friends and ordering the same old Pinot, afraid to venture into unchartered territory? Have you struggled with choosing between 'reds, whites, or pinks', begrudgingly selecting a lemonade to mask your lack of wine knowledge? Tried other wine tastings and left more sober and confused than ever? Well, look no further because WineO Club is a well-deserving 5 star venue! Our party sampled five wines from around the globe while learning the basics of Wine tasting 101 from founder, Mark, a super personable and knowledgeable sommelier. He reviewed the Look, Taste, and Feel of each wine, reinforcing our knowledge with vino trivia and giveaways. A lovely spread of cheeses, crackers, and salami accompanied our wine selections. I don't believe my glass was ever empty, which is so unlike many of the other tastings I've been to in the city. He books all sorts of parties at a very reasonable rate. Also, WineO Club is unique in that its subscriptions are tailored to wine region, preference, and frequency of delivery! This is one NY gem you Don't want to miss. My only caveat is Pace Yourself!! read more

Highly recommend WineO Club to any group looking to have more than the "typical" night out! The owner/instructor Mark was absolutely entertaining and friendly, and managed to make learning about wine very engaging and not overly stuffy feeling. He also kept all of our glasses full the entire class as we swirled, sniffed, and ate our to happiness (and a bit of tipsiness). His class offered 5 wine pairings along with a mix of cheese pairings and salami. Mark gives you a range of sparkling, white, and red wines while also playing games that keep things fun. We had to do things like identify scents and do a blind tasting. Our team didn't do too tell, but we had fun regardless. I definitely feel like I left the class knowing more about wine than before, as well as created some fun memories! Mark also recommends classes for bachelorette parties, birthdays, and office events - which are a great idea! read more

Wine tasting can feel a little stuffy, but the Yelp event I attended here was definitely not that. The owner, Mark, gave us a great intro to the ins and outs of wine tasting while keeping things fun (and decently boozy). The wine and cheese pairings were delicious, and the space is cozy but not cramped - perfect for a group of 20 or fewer people. Trying to think of an excuse to come back here with friends or coworkers ASAP... read more

Oh how I miss you WineO club! So informative and so much wine to keep you asking more questions *wink wink*. I was lucky enough to attend through a yelp elite event and boy was I impressed! Mark, the founder of WineO Club is very funny and knows his stuff. He made sure we knew more than just the basics and he wasn't cheap with glasses that he kept pouring. I loved it! All my winos need to give this place a shot even the people who aren't into drinking or those that like something a little stronger. There's no losing here. The prices are great if you decide to join the club at end and it beats competitors because you get to decide what you want. Cheers to that! read more

I came here for the WineO 101 event on Saturday with my boyfriend and another couple. We ended getting paired with a different couple but it was nice to branch out and talk to other people at the table. We got paired up and had a little competition which was fun and informative. I liked that there was a paper that kind of explained a bunch of things and that we could write on it and take it home. Also all the cheeses the wines were paired with were great but the truffle cheese was amazing. I seriously need to go out and find it to buy. Mark was funny as well as informative about everything he explained. The pours of wine were generous and were all paired perfectly. I normally am not a red wine drinker but I actually enjoyed the ones that we tried. At the end my boyfriend and I decided to try out the wine club where you get wine delivered. Mark took time to talk to us and figure out what exactly we are looking for. I can't wait to get the first shipment and see what he choose for us! I would deff recommend this class for anyone who loves wine and is looking to have a fun time with it! read more

WineO was a riot! And Mark, the host/instructor, is the absolute man! I cannot recommend trying a WineO class enough for anyone that enjoys casually getting drunk, fantastic cheese (and sausage), meeting new people, and trying something new in a completely pressure-free atmosphere. My girlfriend and I knew very little about wine and typically stick to other alcohols, but the WineO 101 class with Mark was sincerely entertaining and, surprisingly, very informative. You'll definitely learn a few super easy tricks to bust out at dinners or parties on how to identify the age, ingredients, and type of wine you're drinking. What's better than getting toasty off wine, eating some amazing honey infused goat cheese, learning how to tell if a wine is Old or New World, and being entertained? Do yourself a solid and take a WineO class. Cheers! read more

WineO Club - Cheese plate with sausage - Wine Tasting Classes Near Me - New York, New York

What an absolutely incredible class! Mark is fantastic, he makes the class fun and interactive and does not go light on the wine pours! You get to learn so much from taste and smells to figuring out the year, alcohol content, and place the wine originated from. You get to try both white and red wines, and each wine you have is paired with some type of cheese and mark explains how and why each of the pairings work. Note (and I'm definitely not complaining about this) there will be a lot of wine to drink so make sure to eat dinner before hand because a few pieces of cheese will not be enough. Definitely a fun time and I highly recommend to everyone! read more

WineO Club - Wine Tasting Classes Near Me - New York, New York

WineO Club is awesome! I was here last night for a Yelp event and the founder, Mark, is absolutely wonderful. He made sure that this unique wine tasting class was both fun and knowledgeable. So fun in fact, that the event was only supposed to last 1.5 hrs and everyone stayed for 2.5 hrs (and we didn't even know each other)! We learned some fun facts about wine and actually took notes during the event that will be useful in the future when dining out or just looking for a bottle to pair with takeout at home. I cannot compare this wine tasting to others since this was a first for me. But I can tell you that all 5 wines we tasted were full pours and Mark was kind enough to top us all off a few times. Mark also paired the wines with excellent cheese (mostly locally sourced from Union Square Market), salami and crackers. It was perfect. I would highly recommend this class for pretty much any group occasion. And I would definitely return with my own group in the future. The actually wine club also seems like it is worth giving a shot. You can tailor the bottles to your liking, choose the frequency and cancel at anytime. Thank you Yelp, Mark and Ruggy for an awesome event, you all rock! read more

The WineO Clubs 101 event is awesome! I don't think I can relay to you it's epicness but, I will do my best. Mark is great- he's a combination of funny and knowledgeable about everything wine related. Made a total novice like me feel completely comfortable to ask likely silly questions and really enjoy myself. He was a very generous pourer and gave us all the wine we could handle, and had quality meat and cheeses that went well with each selection. And the Wineo Club itself sounds super affordable and reasonable for the wine fanatic on a budget. If I wasn't afraid of neighbors getting my monthly box of wine and stealing it I would def be signing up. Overall it was super fun and I recommend the experience. It is unique and affordable. I don't know of any other like it in the city. They even do private events like bachelorette parties. Check it out! read more

I'm so happy to have gotten the opportunity to attend this elite event at WineO. Mark, the owner that started this company, was passionate about what he does. Not only did I enjoy different wine pairings with cheese and salami, I also went home with some knowledge. I wouldn't say I know a lot about wine, but it's a start. He taught us what wines would go well with a shake shack burger which is perfect hehe. We have those nights when we just want a glass of wine at home and have take out. I would definitely recommend this for people who want to do a group event or for companies that want to bring your team together. What is a better way than over wine and cheese. It's definitely a fair price for the amount of wine you get, you will definitely leave feeling tipsy because they do not skimp on the glasses. read more

WineO Club - Wine Tasting Classes Near Me - New York, New York

I had such an amazing and fun time at WineO Club last night for a Yelp event, and it was so great meeting other foodies and wine lovers. The founder and host, Mark, was super engaging and taught us so much about wine and how to identify the varietal, vintage, alcohol content, etc...He was very personable and answered all of our questions (i.e. what's your favorite Napa winery, what's the go-to wine to order at a Michelin-rated restaurant?). We tasted five different wines, which were paired with four different cheeses. We were also provided with salami and crackers which were a great hit, esp. at our table where we needed refills! We played a team-building exercise where little bottles of different scents were passed around and we had to guess what fruit it was. I thought I had a sharp nose, but nope. Our group got 0 points! Yass. It was a useful exercise to get familiar with all the white and red fruits used in different wines. Then we did a blind test where we put all the info we learned in the class to use. I'd recommend the wine classes for any company outings or a fun night out with wine-loving friends! read more

This was by far the most fun I've ever had at a wine tasting! On the third floor, above a bar, you have the WineO Club with Mark ready to teach you and also have you taste...a lot of wine. We were here yesterday for our friend's birthday. We had about 12 people altogether. The tables were set with glasses and some crackers and cheese (the cheese would later be paired with different wines). What was really cool about this experience is how much Mark taught us! You don't just try a wine, like it or dislike it, and move on. He explained how to figure out what fruit is in it (by playing a sniffing game), how old it is, where it's from, etc. Some of us were taking notes! Mark was very accommodating. I told him before we got to the red wines that I'm not a red person so he gave me more of the prosecco, riesling, and savignon blanc which were all REALLY good wines. He didn't scowl at me that I don't enjoy drinking red wine. But I got to learn so much about wines while having many glasses. Also, you don't just get 3 sips. You got a few pours of each wine! This makes for a rowdy bunch but Mark took it all in stride. We brought some additional snacks which are allowed and I'd recommend if you come to an event here and you're likely to get hungry. We had some pita chips, guacamole, hummus, and bruschetta which were great additions. Mark's music playlist was on point too - some Michael Jackson, Justin Timberlake, etc. He said dance parties have occasionally broken out. All in all, this was a very fun event and I'd recommend everyone to give it a try if they're in the area. You have games, snacks, and really tasty wines. What a fun idea Mark has pursued! read more

WineO Club - Wine Tasting Classes Near Me - New York, New York

This was the first wine tasting class I've taken and I had such an amazing time learning about wine from Mark and his crew! Mark is an entertainer as well as an extremely knowledgeable sommelier. Their motto "pour until there is no more" is quite dangerous, yet who could say no to another glass of the delicious wines they have to offer?! ;) They provide handouts (look at pics) that provide helpful information when explaining the tastes, smells, and flavors of the wines. There is another that has a flow chart made by Mark that will tell you what kind of wine you will like beginning on what cocktail you prefer!? At the event I attended, I was lucky enough to drink 5 different wines. All paired with a different cheese and salami and crackers were provided as well. We played a game where you were timed and smelled different scents, guessing what the smells were. Let me warn you, that game is TOUGH. You will also probably be shocked at the answers, but don't worry because most people will get them wrong anyways! There's coffee beans to help you refresh your nose senses, but it's still so hard! Mark's story really is inspirational and I wish him the best of luck with WineO! I had an amazing time and I am sure you will, too! :) read more

After missing out on the Yelp Elite WineO event, I was fortunate enough to receive a coupon to check this class out. This class is absolutely perfect for wine lovers and wine novices alike. The class size is small (only about 14-16 ppl a class), so you end up bonding with everyone else in the room. Mark and team provide you with a lot of materials to help you understand the different tastes, smells, and looks of each wine. While enjoying 4-5 perfectly paired wines and cheeses, Mark walks you through some fun exercises that involve blind smell and taste tests. I suggest taking notes on the papers Mark provides, since he inundates you with a ton of great info. Mark also goes into pairing wine with food and even gives you some history of the wines you are served. You'll definitely leave feeling like you've learned something! Mark also has a wine club, that is tailored to each specific drinker. The price is about $47 and you'll receive 3 wines every month, two months, or three months. My roommate and I decided to check it out, since we enjoy having wine in the house! You have the ability to cancel at anytime too, so there's nothing to lose. Overall, this was an excellent experience. I came thinking I knew a thing or two, but boy did I leave feeling 10 times more knowledgeable. Highly recommended for a fun outing with friends or family. read more

Fun and intimate setting to learn about wine. The host/owner/sommelier Mark was friendly and welcoming. The venue, a small rented studio in Manhattan, was a cute and cozy setting that made it feel more like a home party than a "wine class". At the end, you were offered to join the WineO club, but never felt pressured to do so. 4 out of 5 stars because (1) there was a limited amount of snacks to go with all the wine, and (2) there were no take home copies of the information sheets we used. That would have been helpful. As for item #1 above, I know it's an added cost for a small business, so I suggested that he have people bring snacks to share in pot-luck style. read more

I've been to several wine tastings but it was after attending a wineo club event with Mark, the wine expert, that I left with a much better understanding of how to enjoy, taste, & select wine. He took us through various exercises including the smell test with a book of various oils to test our senses and how tannins feel on our tongue. It was great because it was so interactive! We of course also got to taste some great wines from the club and I left with a promo code to apply to my first purchase! I'll need to grab some friends together and host my own wine tasting with them! Absolutely recommend! read more

I recently celebrated my 28th birthday here and was blown away by what a fabulous time my group and I had. The host Mark was knowledgeable, down to earth, and so funny.

Based on the reviews, I had very high expectations for WineO Club. WineO Club did NOT disappoint. We were a party of nine and we had a great time. It is a VERY informative wine tasting session. We all loved it! I can't wait to go back to Wine 202. Mark is very knowledgeable. read more

Wow. Came here for a wine tasting event via Yelp Elite and I was blown away. There is something truly special about small businesses and the WineO Club captures just that. The WineO Club markets their wine tasting classes as low key and practical and it really was. We received recommendations for pairing with a Shake Shack burger and a Peter Lugar steak. Mark, the owner, was very engaging, walking our group through the different types of wines, answering questions, all the while being a hysterical, stand up host. 10/10 would come back again. read more

What could be better than learning how to appreciate wine, not just drink it to get buzzed--not that getting intoxicated (mildly) is so bad. This was my second class with Mark, and both times, I came away with greater knowledge about how to differentiate between varieties of wine, judge alcohol content and age of a wine, how to order in a restaurant and more. Apart from the educational aspect of these events, you get to drink a lot of wine. Each time, the crowd was great--they took the class to learn and no one got sloppy. It's a good experience and a good value. read more

I purchased the class for my boyfriend as a Christmas present. We had so much fun! The instructor was hilarious but we still learned a lot about what different fruits go into wine, how to tell how old a wine is and how to know what kind of palate you have for wine. We played games and the other couple we were grouped with were very nice so that made it fun. I would definitely recommend this for anyone who enjoys wine and wants learn more about wine while having fun. This would be fun for dates or girls night out. You do taste (chug) a lot of wine so I would recommend taking public transportation if you go. No driving :) read more

What a great time. I don't know a whole lot about wine, but Mark made it fun and easy. We had a few great reds and whites and meats/cheeses to pair them with. I think I'm going to recommend this to my company for a corporate event. read more

WineO Club - Wine Tasting Classes Near Me - New York, New York

Great class with an awesome instructor/owner. It's informative and you come away with plenty of pointers on how to identify types of fruit in your wine or whether it's old world/new world, or how to tell alcohol content etc. The instructor does give you plenty of time to just relax and enjoy your wine rather than just spewing a ton of facts at you that you may or may not remember with the generous pours. This is actually the 3rd time I've taken a wine class (last two were at another establishment) but this one was certainly enjoyable. What might add to this is if they actually sold wine so you can buy some products afterwards. I would definitely recommend to anyone who is looking for a fun event. Great idea for bachelorette or birthday party to start off the night. Only downside was I did have to wait awhile before an availability opened up to book. read more

My daughter and her boyfriend gave this to me for my birthday. We went this past weekend and it was fantastic. Besides a lot of good wine drinking (tastings...lol) it was very educational. Mark the owner, sommelier was excellent in explaining smell, tast, age, alcohol content and type of wine you were drinking. He also had a really nice selection of cheeses and salami for the pairing with the wine and yes you can tell the difference. It's definitely fun and educational at the same time. He also offers a no pressure, no fee, very reasonable wine club and yes we are giving that a try. We plan on returning for another future event! read more

I've been to the WineO 101 event twice and I can say that this is by far the best interactive wine tasting event in the city. Mark is incredibly knowledgeable, and helps to teach about wine in a fun way that's not intimidating. The cheese board was plentiful and the wine pours were large. I've gone once with my boyfriend for a date night and the second time for a work event with my team and both were such a blast. Our whole group was laughing the entire time.
