About this Event
A live and interactive tasting of SIX wines with industry expert Ian Blackburn at Culina Restaurant.
“The GUCCI of wine classes” - LA TIMES.
Acquire the skills you need to elevate your personal wine appreciation as we explore SIX wines with an expert instructor. History, anecdotes, and laughs all served in generous portions. For thousands of years, people have made and enjoyed wine. If it's been around so long, why is it so intimidating? We know how to demystify this ancient beverage… fun, fast, and factual.

ABOUT IAN BLACKBURN, WINE ENTREPRENEUR
Ian discovered the wine industry at the ripe age of 21 while working for famous Chefs such as Thomas Keller and Joachim Splichal in Los Angeles’ top dining rooms. The discovery of wine and the massive need for wine knowledge quickly engulfed Ian’s life and his passion redirected his career from Restaurants and Hotels to Vineyards and Education. Soon enough in 1995, LearnAboutWine.com was born, becoming the first website dedicated to wine education.
With over 25-years of experience traveling the wine world, Ian is a published author (Wiley Publications, 2002), has 10 vintages of top level winemaking on his resume at Beekeeper Cellars and is considered one of the region's best wine educators. Ian’s push to evolve and his ability to pivot has produced a strata of new concepts such as, ZoomIntoWine.com (virtual education), Merchantofwine.com (the family’s online wine store), and now the return of in-person gatherings with LearnAboutWine.com - using all the great gathering spots in LA as potential venues.
