There are lots of people who think that the first task of any wine is to be red. We meet you at our events, and while you’re (usually) very polite about the white wines, your eyes light up when we say, ‘And now let's move on to the reds…’ So we’re putting on a tasting just for you, in which we’ll focus on rich red wines, seven of them, with some rather tasty cheese on the side. To show that red wine can be full-flavoured without being full-bodied, we’ll begin with reds that are refreshing and fragrant, probably from Italy and France. Then we’ll move on to wine that are draughts of the warm south, most likely from countries close to the Mediterranean. Spain. And we’ll finish with gutsy Malbec or Australian Shiraz (aka Blood-and-Thunder from Down Under). Or possible both. Whatever the line-up, you can be assured of an excellent, belly-warming and tooth-staining evening.

You'll be amazed by how much you can learn in just one evening! If you know what you like but want to understand why - then this evening is for you. We will taste six wines from around the world and provide many pointers that will enhance your appreciation of wine. No previous experience necessary! This course is for people who want to have fun learning a little more about it in a friendly and relaxed way. We will cover how to taste wine like a professional and look at all the major wine regions of the world. We will guide you through how to make better wine choices and will start you on your journey of wine discovery. COURSE OUTLINE Introduction to the World’s major wine regions Why wines taste different How to taste wines – aroma, taste, describing wines Recognising elements of wine - tannin, acidity, oak Tasting notes, presentation and some cheese included.
