Especially since the World of Wine has dramatically changed in the last 10 years alone ... did you know that China is now the 8th largest wine producer in the world, with only Spain having more vines planted than them?! That's the kind of things, along with current wine trends and international palate, that we shall discover and discuss altogether.
THIS 8-TASTING BUNDLE IS PRICED AT ONLY £290pp, SAVING YOU A WHOPPING £30pp, compared to the full price for 8 tastings sold separately (£320pp).

Each week we will examine how different grape varieties, different climates and local wine-making techniques impact on the aromas and flavours of the wine. Through practice and our guidance you will learn how to identify the wine's characteristics for yourself; we show you how to taste and appraise wine like a professional. We believe that the best aide to learning about wine is the process of tasting and comparing for yourself; that is exactly what you will have the chance to do, in our relaxed and informal setting.
