Not sure where to start? 

Wine tasting should be fun, and our events are always fun, friendly and informal. We have a host of great starter tastings and events for you to dip your toe in the water.

We take out the stuffiness so often associated with wine and make everyone welcome, whether a novice or connoisseur. 

Wish to explore more?

We have a wide range of wine tasting events to allow you to develop your wine knowledge.

Our 4 and 8 week courses provide a comprehensive delve into the world of wine. You'll know which wines you like and why.

If you have always wondered about food and wine matching, we host wine dinners, each with a different theme, like Fizz, Fish & Chips or Steak & Red Wine!

Learn a new skill with our wine education courses. 

We run three levels of the WSET (Wine & Spirit Education Trust) wine courses.

These are the perfect way to grow your knowledge, whether a professional or enthusiast, with a more systematic approach to how to taste wine and you get an internationally-recognised qualification!

Level 1 and 2 are for suitable for beginners, level 3 requires you to have completed level 2 or have a similar knowledge level.

If you aren't sure which course is right for you, read our blog post here or get in touch with us here.
