SommSchool is truly the best find! I’ve taken many classes with Kellie, and every single one has been an incredible experience. Not only does SommSchool give you the tools, education, and confidence to enjoy wine, but it also empowers you to share what you’ve learned with others along the way. The classes are the perfect balance of fun and informative! Kellie really knows her stuff but it’s her sincere ability to make everyone feel welcome, comfortable, and confident that gives SommSchool its extra-special touch. She brings together people with all levels of wine knowledge, and somehow every single person leaves feeling empowered, inspired, and full of new insights to share. Kellie is incredibly knowledgeable, wonderfully approachable, and makes learning about wine feel exciting and totally unintimidating.

Kellie taught a private class for my friends and I for my birthday. It was an unforgettable experience. She is a wealth of knowledge, while being so down to earth and she teaches in a way that’s so easy to understand. She worked with me to pick a topic we thought would be fun and then directed me on some wines to buy ahead of time. I would 1000% recommend booking a private class with her for your next special occasion.

Kellie's wine classes are so interesting and also great for all levels of wine knowledge. My husband grew up in wine country and I grew up with two parents that didnt drink (aka I know nothing about wine and my hisband knows a lot) and we both found the classes very fun and interesting! Her retreats also look amazing and I hope to attend one sometime. Kellie does a great job of fostering community while educating her clients! She is so knowledgeable but still makes you feel comfortable asking questions. These classes are so fun! Cant recommend somm school enough!

I took two classes through SommSchool in 2025, and they were highlights of my year. Each class was the perfect mix of history, geography, and wine education. From vintner to varietal, Kellie is as knowledgeable as they come (x10) and is incredibly generous with that knowledge. If you're thinking of signing up, do it now. You won't be able to help falling for her love of wine!

Kellie brings a whole new level of excitement, insight, and education into her tastings. Will be living by her wine guides 🙌🏻

SommSchool is both educational and fun. Kellie's knowledge combined with her charismatic personality make for a great evening. If you are looking for a gift, or a great way to learn about wine, a SommSchool class is the way to go.

We had the privilege of attending the Portugal wine retreat with SommSchool last September. The trip far exceeded anything we could have imagined. Not only is Kellie an expert on all things wine, but she is dialed in on all the ins and outs of the wine/food and travel scene in the US and abroad. Every detail is thought of so that the trip wows from beginning to end. We learned so much about the food, wine, culture, and history of Portugal. Everything you would want from an upscale experience was provided. We loved every minute of our trip and made lifelong friends. We travel a lot and will drop all plans to attend one of SommSchool’s trip. We are forever attendees! Do yourself a favor and book a tour with SommSchool, it will be the best trip you ever take!

The SommSchool Costco Wine Guide is the thread I needed to find my way through the labyrinth of wine options. Thank you! I’ve made several confident purchases thanks to the instruction in this guide and love that it’s a short course on wine selection rather than a list of someone’s favorite brands.
