Riesling Around the World Wine Class is a guided wine education tasting focused on dry Riesling. The class is built around a single grape rather than a broad wine survey, with the tasting using dry Rieslings as the point of comparison. Its subject is how the grape changes from one place to another, so the format connects wine education with a side-by-side look at place, grape, and style.
The event is organized by the Place des Fêtes team. That matters for planning because the class is tied directly to the restaurant hosting it, rather than being described as an off-site tasting or a separate festival program.
The tasting features five dry Rieslings from around the world. The selection is described through its purpose: showing how dramatically Riesling can change from one place to another. No individual producers, regions, vintages, or bottle names are specified, so the useful planning takeaway is the structure of the tasting rather than a named wine list.
Because every wine in the class is identified as dry Riesling, the comparison stays focused while still spanning more than one place. The event description does not frame the class around sweetness levels, food pairings, or a meal; it frames the session around dry Riesling and geographic variation within the grape.
The class takes place at Place des Fêtes, identified as a restaurant in New York City. The listed address is 212 Greene Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11238. For anyone orienting the event within the city, the venue information places it in Brooklyn while the broader city field identifies New York City.
The class is scheduled for Sunday, October 18, 2026, with a listed early-afternoon start. The event also has a recorded end time, so it is presented as a bounded class session rather than an open-ended tasting. Exact timing can be handled in the event details where the start and end fields are displayed.
