An Idiot’s Guide to Wine is a hilarious alternative to traditional wine tasting nights — with stand-up comedy and a sip-by-sip format

An Idiot’s Guide to Wine is the least pretentious way to learn about wine: a no-judgment zone where stand-up comedy and tasting come together in one interactive session. As the evening unfolds, you’re guided through five wines from around the world, tasting each one as it’s discussed, so the experience feels immersive, social and surprisingly approachable. 

This is the kind of adults’ night out that works whether you come with friends, a date or your most wine-curious colleague. The format keeps everyone involved because you’re not just listening—you’re tasting what’s being talked about in real time, which makes the whole thing feel more relaxed, more social, and far less intimidating than a traditional class. The show is written by Merrick Watts, the only comedian in the world to possess a level 3 WSET (Wine & Spirit Education Trust) qualification.

For anyone after a fresh night out in Singapore, this mix of comedy, wine tasting, and five wines makes learning feel easy. It’s a no-judgment way to get more familiar with wine, with selected and upcoming dates that make it easy to plan ahead. Tickets are limited, and attendees must be 18+ with a valid ID.
