The Wine School at the San Francisco Wine Center on the 6th of December  welcomes Jordan Mackay, one of our founding wine school instructors, San Francisco Magazine’s Wine Editor, New York Times wine writer, and co-author of the new book Secrets of the Sommeliers, to a very special class for San Francisco wine fans and foodies to help them navigate through the sometimes daunting restaurant wine experience with grace and style!

Do you feel a slight sense of confusion or perhaps panic when you open the wine menu at a restaurant? Are there broad categories and new trends on many wine lists with which you have little comfort? Wish you knew a bit more about how to spot great deals on the wine list or what to do when the wine you order isn’t to your liking? When is it appropriate to bring your own bottle into the restaurant and really, which wine is going to pair best with your glazed pork belly or braised short ribs?

The class includes a selection of gourmet cheeses and a tasting of eight incredible wines. Tickets are $60 and with just an extra $15 you can take home an autographed copy of Jordan’s new James Beard award-winning book Secrets of the Sommeliers (co-written by Rajat Parr, wine director at RN74 and Michael Mina)

NOTE: This ticket price of $60 DOES NOT include a copy of Secrets of the Sommeliers. To get your autographed copy for just an extra $15, please bring $15 to the class or email brian@sfwinecenter to purchase one in advance. Copies of Secrets of the Sommeliers will be on hand and Jordan will sign all the books after the class.
