Online wine appreciation with Buckinghamshire Adult Learning

Tutored by Paula Goddard of wineuncorked.co.uk. During this online course you’ll taste, learn and discuss wines made from various grape varieties and distinguish wines made in different regions around the world. You’ll also learn how the taste of wine can be changed by its serving temperature and its colour, why sweet wines can also taste sharp and why wine reviews are useful and how to find aromas and flavours in wines. At the end of this 5-week course you’ll have the knowledge and confidence to choose and buy wines you enjoy. Learners will need to purchase the two wines to be covered at each session and should expect to spend between £5 and £12 a bottle. A list of suggested wines will be provided along with places to purchase - both online and locally. For the first session you'll need to bring along two wines if you can made with the Grenache grape variety - one a rosé and one a red wine. These wines can be from any country or countries. The wines may also be labelled 'Garnacha' - this is an alternative spelling for Grenache.
