Description

If you're in the “ABC” (anything but Chardonnay) camp or are sick of Sauvignon Blanc, this is the tasting for you. Come and explore the wide world of white wine that lies off the beaten track as we taste through a range of lesser known and more unusual grape varieties. We'll look at Albariño, Assyrtiko and everything in between, tasting blind to help us truly explore which wines are our favourites. Your host, Wine and Spirit Education Specialist Barbara Drew will give you pointers along the way, helping you distinguish the different grape varieties, and you'll come away with a much better understanding of which white wine to pick next time you want something a little different. Hosted by Barbara Drew, Wine and Spirit Education Specialist
