11am: Napa’s Iconic Cabernet Sauvignons with Stephen Brook

1.30pm: The Great Australian Terrior with Andrew Jefford

This decade promises to be the one in which terroir begins to take over from technique in Australia. This masterclass with Decanter’s award-winning writer and columnist Andrew Jefford – who spent 2009 in Australia as a research fellow at the University of Adelaide studying Australian Terroir – will track some of the character and variety of new Australian wines with a real sense of place.

4pm: How New World Cabernet Ages. Great Library Wines from the New World

Moderated by Sarah Kemp, Publishing Director, Decanter

The great wines of Boredeaux are known for their ability to age and develop, but what of the New World’s finest wines? Decanter has brought together five of the New World’s greatest names to demonstrate the development of New World based Bordeaux blends. World renown producers are shipping rare library wines from their own cellars for this unique tasting. A chance to taste history.
