Manhattan Wine Seminars

Our mission is:
     To educate the consumer.
     To demystify wine.
     To provide an important business skill
     To have a great time doing it.

Manhattan Wine Seminars is California's premier, independent wine education company. We offer consumer- friendly courses to corporations that want to offer an important business skill or an incentive to their sales personnel, to executives or employees, to their clients, to alumni organizations, professional associations, and to any group conferences that want a fresh, new event incorporating a useful and enjoyable skill for their members.

Our seminars and courses range from Wine Basics and "You Have the Wine List, Now What?"^TM to Varietal Seminars, to our advanced courses such as the special CEO/Executive Roundtable Tastings.

Manhattan Wine Seminars specializes in Corporate Team Building events, and can also custom design anything from a single session to a four week series of progressively more sophisticated seminars/tastings. We also plan wine receptions in conjunction with a dinner, award ceremony or conference.

All our events emphasize the practical aspects of wine drinking--all the way from the pure pleasure of savoring the wine to mastering the etiquette of closing the deal at a wine dinner with a client (or even impressing a future in -law!).

Manhattan Wine Seminars clients' objectives are of the utmost importance to us. We do not sell wine, so guests receive only unbiased, high quality wine education. We source the finest wines at the best prices for our clients. All of our sommeliers, pourers and consultants have extensive wine education, with certificates from the nation's top wine education organizations.

We work with you to guarantee a successful event, then develop a proposal. for your approval. Nothing is left to chance with our Wine Seminar Event Checklist.

From an analysis of the basic ingredients of wine, to an in-depth study of individual grape varieties, this selection of our most popular tastings is sure to stimulate your palate.

Whether you want to learn the skills and secrets of the sommeliers, or just learn how to taste and pronounce "Gewurztraminer", Manhattan Wine Seminars has an event for you!
