Since then, US wine has flourished, with the establishment of 280 American Viticultural Areas across the country. Farmers and winemakers from the Atlantic to the Pacific have been researching, innovating, experimenting, and pushing the boundaries to develop the Great American Wine.Join us for a casual seated wine class where we will discuss the history of wine in the united states and breakd down the best wine regions while we taste six of our favorite fine wine examples at Planet Wine!Included with your ticket:Seated wine class with with NRG Wine Director, Erin Dudley CSWTasting of six fine wines from the USASmall serving of artisanal cheese and bread to accompany your tastingDiscounts on bottle purchases of all wines tasted - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/alexandria/the-best-of-the-us-wine-class/100002001712348519 - **Event Categories**: workshops, wine-tasting - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 1 hour - Location: Planet Wine - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 52.86, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Alexandria - **state**: VA - **country**: United States - **location**: Planet Wine - **lat**: 38.8240307 - **long**: -77.0585518 - **full address**: Planet Wine, 2004 Mount Vernon Avenue, Alexandria, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: The Best of the US Wine Class - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/df80c762614b106ab6de5d334206611046b1a2d5f4eb70179a8fc7191976b2f2-rimg-w1200-h600-dc080808-gmir.jpg?v=1790055963 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is The Best of the US Wine Class being held? - **A:** The Best of the US Wine Class takes place on Fri, 27 Nov, 2026 at 06:00 pm to Fri, 27 Nov, 2026 at 07:00 pm at Planet Wine, 2004 Mount Vernon Avenue, Alexandria, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing The Best of the US Wine Class? - **A:** The Best of the US Wine Class is organized by Planet Wine Shop. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
