WEEKLY WINE COURSES
These longer win courses follow the systematic approach to wine tasting and cover all the main grape varieties, styles and regions of the world. Most wines are tasted “blind” or unseen so that you learn to judge the quality of a wine on merit, without any preconceptions. We aim to give you the tools to understand the wines that you are drinking and the knowledge to experiment with new styles and buy with confidence. Production methods, ageing potential, food matching, storage conditions, wine faults and other important issues are covered on all courses. Our Four Session Beginners course run over four 2 hour sessions.
From 2024 we are also offering the Comite de Champagne Official Champagne Specialist course. The only Wine School in the UK to offer this course.
