Throughout the month of May, head on down to the Seaport for some spring wines, charcuterie & cheese and a whole lotta fun info about vinos. Babbo Pizzeria e Enoteca has both after-work and Saturday classes to help fit into your schedule — so take your pick and sign yourself up (the full line-up is listed below). Thursday evening gatherings are $35 per person while Saturday get togethers are $45. You’ll explore a different region of Italy via tastings or a certain type of wine at each event, and there’ll be plenty of cured meats and formaggio provided, too. Classes are 21+ only (obviously). Buy your tickets here.
