Navigating the world of wine at 21 can feel overwhelming. Whether you’ve just celebrated a milestone birthday, landed your first job or stepped into professional networking events, wine is part of the culture.

At Urban Pour Tastings, we make wine approachable, fun and stress-free.

Much more than Wine 101, our tastings are designed for young adults and new professionals who want to feel confident choosing a bottle, reading a menu or raising a glass in any setting, whether with friends or colleagues.

Learn the Basics (Without the Intimidation)

We strip away the jargon, giving you tools you’ll actually use. In our tastings, you’ll learn:

  • How to read a wine label without guessing

  • The difference between varietals (Cabernet, Pinot, Chardonnay, etc.)

  • How to order wine at a bar, restaurant or event with ease

  • Simple tasting techniques to help you learn what you like (and what you don’t)

  • Etiquette tips so you feel confident at work dinners or celebrations

Perfect for Parents Too

Your son or daughter just turned 21, and they’re stepping into a world where wine will often be part of the experience, client lunches, networking events, happy hours and team-building dinners. As they launch into internships and early careers, feeling confident about wine can be a valuable skill.

Our wine education tastings are the perfect gift for young adults. Whether they know nothing about wine or already have a bit of experience, our sessions are casual, interactive and designed to build confidence. We cover the essentials, how to open a bottle, pour and taste properly, recognize styles and even pair wine with food.

This is more than a 21st birthday celebration, it’s an investment in life skills they’ll carry for years. Instead of another party favor or forgettable gift, give them something meaningful: the ability to sip with confidence and navigate professional and social settings with ease.
