Welcome To Wine School World Tour: Argentina + Chile

Join us for a guided wine tasting in Washington, DC led by Certified Sommelier Gary Russell. This intimate tasting features 7 wines total — a welcome sparkling wine followed by 3 flights of 2 — showcasing Argentina and Chile side by side.

Hosted by Welcome to Wine School, this Argentina + Chile tasting is designed to help you taste what actually separates these two neighbors on opposite sides of the Andes: altitude vs. ocean influence, bright vs. bold, and the signature grapes that make each country unmistakable.

This isn’t a lecture — and it’s definitely not a wine “class” where you’re worried about getting the answers right.
Instead, expect:
Clear, engaging storytelling
Practical insight you can actually use
A relaxed, welcoming atmosphere
Side-by-side comparisons that make the differences obvious
Wines chosen for both quality and approachability

Whether you’re just beginning your wine journey or already love exploring new bottles, this experience is built to meet you where you are — and leave you more confident the next time you’re staring at a shelf of Malbec, Carménère, Cabernet, or crisp South American whites wondering what to pick.
With just 25 seats, you won’t feel lost in a crowd. It stays intimate, friendly, and engaging.
If you’ve been curious about Welcome to Wine School, this is a great place to start.

We will share the event location after your tickets are purchased.
