Weekday Course Days
Weekday Course Days are our new launch and suitable for those that prefer to concentrate on learning about specific wine regions in a small intimate setting for groups no larger than 16.
There will be a morning and afternoon tutorial, taking place in the Pickering Cellar and led by our knowledgable staff who are passionate about teaching and empowering you with your newfound knowledge and experience. The proceedings will break for a refreshing and restorative picnic lunch as well as intermittent tea and coffee breaks. The day is devoted to learning about wine through taste, interaction and discussion with fellow attendees.
A maximum of 4 tickets is permitted per customer.
Alternatively you can choose from the range of our London evening wine schools and one day wine schools.

Description
Today is dedicated to Burgundy. We will spend the morning focusing on the white wines of the region, learning about the intricacies of the classification system, and the different styles of wine produced in the different villages. After a break for our Head Chef's buffet-style luncheon, and an opportunity to see how the wines match with different foods, we will tackle the reds in the afternoon, exploring different grape varieties, communes and finally, seeing how red Burgundy ages. You’ll leave with a comprehensive overview of this complex region.
