Event Description

Venture into the volcanic south at this exclusive Wine Scholar Guild masterclass celebrating the bold and expressive wine regions of Campania and Basilicata. Hosted by the West London Wine School, this evening uncovers the history, native grapes and dramatic landscapes that define two of Italy’s most ancient and culturally rich winemaking territories.

Part of the Wine Scholar Guild curriculum, this session forms a single evening of the Italian Wine Scholar – Unit 2 program, making it the perfect taster for anyone considering stepping into more structured wine study. This class explores the deep-rooted traditions and striking geological forces that have shaped southern Italy — from coastal Tyrrhenian breezes to volcanic ash-laden soils — and celebrates regions where ancient grape varieties continue to thrive. Ideal for wine lovers or those thinking of enrolling in the full qualification, this evening offers a flavour of the depth and scope of the Wine Scholar Guild’s comprehensive teachings.

Please note that this session is not suitable for students currently enrolled in the Italian Wine Scholar Unit 2 course. It may also offer limited new material for those who have completed the qualification, though past students are warmly welcome should they wish to revisit these regions through the tasting.

You’ll enjoy a guided tasting of wines selected to express the energy and diversity of each region. Experience the aromatic whites and structured reds of Campania — including Fiano, Greco di Tufo and Taurasi — alongside the majestic, mountain-grown power of Aglianico del Vulture from Basilicata, one of Italy’s most thrilling expressions of volcanic terroir.

Whether you’re considering the full Italian Wine Scholar program or simply eager to explore the deeper south of Italy’s wine map, this evening promises a fascinating and flavour-filled journey.
