Event Description

Join West London Wine School founder and owner Jimmy Smith (Wine With Jimmy, Beare Green Winery) for a deep dive into the world of the emerging PIWI grape varieties—the future of sustainable winemaking. PIWI (fungal-resistant) grapes are revolutionizing viticulture by reducing the need for chemical treatments, making them a key player in eco-friendly wine production.

In this live online masterclass, you’ll explore the origins, characteristics, and flavor profiles of these innovative grape varieties, tasting a curated selection of wines made from PIWIs across Europe and beyond. Jimmy will guide you through their unique styles, discussing their potential impact on the industry and how they compare to traditional varieties. Jimmy has carefully selected his top PIWI wines from his extensive research over the past 9 months to bring a very unique and interesting tasting.

Perfect for wine lovers, professionals, and sustainability-conscious drinkers, this session is your chance to discover wines that could shape the future of the industry.

Book your spot and taste the future of wine!

A minimum of 8 wines to be tasted during this masterclass.

Unable to commit on the evening? No problem! Anyone registered for this tasting will gain access to the video recording of the live event, so you can always revisit any of these at any time in the future - whether it's because you missed participating in the live evening or if you want to revisit the presentation at a later date.

ONLINE TASTING FEE STRUCTURE:

For this special online tasting, an exclusive tasting kit is included in the listed price which includes a 50ml tasting sample of each wine. Note: Tasting kits will be dispatched in the week leading up to the tasting. If orders are placed fewer than 5 working days before the event the kit may not arrive in time for the live class but the wines can be enjoyed with the event recording.

Tasting kit delivery can be made to anywhere within the UK only. At present we are unable to fulfil international orders.

DON'T WANT TO RECEIVE A TASTING KIT? We understand that not everyone will want to receive the wine samples, and would rather just register to participate in the online evening without the wines. That is absolutely fine! The fee to just register for this evening without receiving a tasting kit is £10. Just enter the promotional code: 45REGONLY when checking out to ensure you just pay the registration cost.
