Meet the Instructor
Katharine Hooper developed her love for wine over a decade of restaurant experience. Her career includes Sommelier and Wine Director positions with Wonderful Hospitality Group, One Fifth, Maialino, and Eataly in NYC. Katharine is WSET Level 3 Certified with Merit.
“The Virtual Wine School was born of a passion for teaching. Throughout my career, I’ve been disappointed by the lack of transparency between the many levels of the wine industry. Today’s consumers want tangible knowledge about what they enjoy and why - and the answers are often much simpler than we expect!”
“Katharine's knowledge is practical, smart, and remarkably broad… She shares generously what she's learned from her own palate, her experience in the field, and her travels.”
