Event Description
Great cheese deserves a great drink — with or without alcohol.
Finding a delicious non-alcoholic wine or low-alcohol drink is one thing. Finding one that pairs beautifully with food is another. With so many alcohol-free wines, beers and alternatives to choose from, how do you know which are genuinely worth drinking?
At West London Wine School, we've done the hard work for you.
Join us for an exciting low- and no-alcohol wine and cheese tasting in Fulham, London, featuring six outstanding cheeses matched with six carefully chosen drinks. From sophisticated alcohol-free wines and craft beers to innovative botanical alternatives, you'll discover that cutting back on alcohol doesn't have to mean compromising on flavour.

Expertly Selected by West London Wine School
This tasting was created by our iconic tutor Henrik, who was inspired to go on a journey with the aim to create this masterclass after being initially frustrated by the lack of genuinely satisfying alternatives to traditional wine.
After completing an intensive low- and no-alcohol masterclass, exploring leading industry exhibitions, and dedicating lots of time to his own market research. After this, Henrik brought together a group of West London Wine School tutors to taste and compare 20 premium low- and no-alcohol drinks alongside classic cheeses.
The result? Six winning combinations that showcase just how exciting alcohol-free cheese pairing can be.
Along the way, you'll also discover how different cheeses are produced, why particular pairings succeed and how to choose excellent no- and low-alcohol drinks with confidence.
