Kirsten Henry Fox, Headmistress

Return to About Us page...

Growing up in La Jolla, California, Kirsten Henry Fox began her wine education watching her mom and dad enjoy wine with dinner.  She didn't really catch the wine bug until in 2004 when her sister, Sara Henry, opened the Art of Wine in Park City, Utah, where they both lived. In order to bring wine lovers regularly into her retail store, Sara began offering short, fact-filled classes with tastes of five, reasonably-priced wines. With a background in public speaking, Kirsten saw the opportunity to learn a bit more about wines while helping Sara as a substitute teacher. Pow!
​

The earth, family wineries, grapes, history... Kirsten fell in love with the subject of wine. In 2008, Sara moved to Napa Valley, and Kirsten was left without a venue to continue tasting and learning. So she opened Fox School of Wine in October 2008, passed the Society of Wine Educators' Certified Specialist of Wine exam in April 2009, passed the Level 1 Sommelier exam by the Court of Master Sommeliers in 2011, published her first wine book in January 2012, (The Profitable Wine List: Three Steps to Easily and Quickly Increase Wine Sales) and became a Certified Executive Sommelier in 2014. Her wine school offers classes, tours, events and training, this time with the possibility of detention for bad students.

​In the past, she was a co-host on the popular Twisted Cork Radio show and podcast, and her Huffington Post blog called Wines to Pair with Life is here.
