ONLINE TASTING: Decanters Top Value Wines Under £15 with West London Wine School

Tuesday 22 March 2022

,

Decanter magazine is widely considered one of the finest and well-respected wine publications in the world and on an annual basis they host the Decanter World Wine Awards which aims to unearth the best wines in the world across a multitude of categories. From the recent February 2022 edition ‘The Wines of the Year’ we have massed a selection of the best value wines from the world’s largest wine competition. All eight of the wines on the tasting have scored 95 points or more and are less than £15 per bottle making them arguably the best value wines in the world. The selection includes exciting wines from France, Portugal, Spain, Chile and Slovenia with both recognised and unusual grape varieties featured. Our expert wine tutor will guide you through what makes the wine so special including history, geology, geography, climate, weather, grape growing and winemaking in a wonderful curated tasting evening. WSET-style tasting notes will also be available for each wine tasted - perfect to assist WSET Level 3 students with their studies. Tasting Date: Tuesday 22nd March 2022 at 7:30pm (the tasting will last approximately 1.5 - 2 hours) TASTING FEE STRUCTURE: For this special two-hour tasting, a wine tasting kit is included in the listed price which includes a 50ml tasting sample of each wine. Note: Tasting kits will be despatched to attendees within the week leading up to the tasting.  Tasting kit delivery can be made to anywhere within the UK. Currently deliveries to outside the UK are not available.  DON'T WANT TO RECEIVE A TASTING KIT? We understand that not everyone will want to receive the wine samples, and would rather just register to participate in the online evening without the wines. That is absolutely fine! The fee to just register for this evening without receiving a tasting kit is £10. Just enter the promotional code: 40REGONLY when checking out to ensure you just pay the registration cost.  TASTING FORMAT: Head Tutor Rosie Johnson will host this exclusive tasting live at 7:30pm on Tuesday 22nd March 2022. This single-evening tasting will be approximately 1.5 - 2 hours in length.  Unable to commit on the evening? No problem! Anyone registered for this tasting will gain access to the video recording of the live event, so you can always revisit any of these at anytime in the future - whether its because you missed participating in the live evening or if you want to revisit the presentation at a later date.
