Is it just us, or are
18 Reasons classes getting more and more epic? In a four-part series beginning March 8, Texas-born wine ace Zach Pace will take eager (and thirsty) students on a musty journey through celebrated winemaking regions. Like a benevolent, bacchanalic
Carmen Sandiego, Pace will skip all over the world, from Italy to France to California, and back again ― exploring Pinot's many faces, the Merlot you thought you'd figured out, California's lesser-known varietals, and Cabernet Sauvignon. Buy tickets as soon as possible. Also, find a designated driver for class nights ― or a least someone to help you stay upright on the Muni rides home.
