Join us in the Bar Jo on the top floor of Josephine for a once in a lifetime tasting of the best wines France has to offer.

At this wine class, we will be breaking into some of our finest wines at Josephine including First Growth Bordeaux and Grand Cru Burgundy! If you take a look at our wine list at Josephine, you'll notice some wines that we would call "collector items." These are wines that are sold at auctions for hundreds, and sometimes thousands of dollars. It's not every day we get to open these wines, but it's the holiday season, and we are ready to share some of this prestige!

Join us for a casual seated wine class where we will discuss the rich history of the finest wines in the world while tasting through six of them with Wine Director, Erin Dudley, at the Bar Jo!

  • Seated wine class with certified sommelier and Neighborhood Restaurant Group Wine Director, Erin Dudley CSW
