Join us on a jaunt around the globe on Tuesday evenings starting 27th Sept as we visit a variety of wine-making countries, tasting everything from Chianti Classico to Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc, Argentine Malbec to Chablis and Champagne. If you want an in-depth, yet broad-based, introduction to the Wonderful World of Wine then this is the course for you.

The World of Wine course runs weekly, but if you need to miss an evening you can easily pick it up when the course runs again or receive a credit against the cost of any of our other tasting or event. So don't worry if you are going on holiday or need to be away at any point!

WHAT WILL I GET FROM THIS COURSE?

By the end of the 8 evenings:

You will have gained a good understanding of the world's major grape varieties and the wine styles they produce

You will have been taught to assess and taste wine like a true professional, and be able to identify any faults found in wine (e.g. a corked wine)

During the 8 evenings we will have tasted wines from most of the worlds major wine regions (tasting nearly 60 wines)

Food & wine matching will also have given you a lot of confidence to try new wine pairings with your favourite foods

You will also have developed your sense of smell and wine vocabulary

Professional ISO tasting glasses, comprehensive tasting notes and some nibbles to help compare food groups with wine are provided
