Event Description

There is a timeless magic in comparing the light and the dark, the crisp and the velvety, the elegant white and the soulful red. Join us for an exploration of Burgundy’s two iconic noble grapes: Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.

Chardonnay is like a blank canvas, it tells the story of the winemaker’s touch and the soil beneath the vine more clearly than almost any other white grape. So, whether you prefer a razor-sharp Chablis, bursting with green apple, or a lush Sonoma Coast Chardonnay, showcasing how controlled oak ageing, there is always a Chardonnay to suit your palate.

Renowned for being temperamental in the vineyard but sublime in the glass, Pinot Noir is a class act. We'll compare classical Burgundy with fruity new world styles - if you're not already in love with this grape, you soon will be.

Join us for Wine 101, an exclusive tasting event, designed for both curious novices and seasoned enthusiasts.

Your tasting will include: a tasting samples of six carefully selected wines, full wine notes & handouts, a 2 hour interactive presentation, with Q&A, led by our wine tutor.
