WHAT SHOULD I GET FROM THE COURSE?

  • You will have gained a good understanding of the world's major grape varieties and the wine styles they produce.
  • You will have been taught to assess, & taste wine like a true professional, and be able to identify any faults found in wine (e.g. a corked wine).
  • During the 8 Evenings we will have tasted wines from most of the worlds major wine regions
  • Food & wine matching will also have given you a lot of confidence to try new wine pairings with your favourite foods.

WHAT IF I HAVE TO MISS A SESSION?

Not a problem.

If at the last minute you can't make it to the session you are more than welcome to send a substitute. The course has been designed to allow for sessions to be completed in any order, so you will not be at a disadvantage if you need to make up an evening at a later date. Please note gates will open 30 minutes before the start of each class.
