Our One-Day Introductory Wine School is a relaxed yet educational experience, designed to introduce you to the basics of wine tasting and the classic grape varieties. Your tutor will guide you through different pairs of wines, helping you to compare and contrast them and then think about your observations, linking these to the climate and country where the grapes were grown.
We will cover all the elements in the glass, from acidity through to tannin, alcohol and oak. At the same time, we will look at the key grape varieties and their regions. You’ll learn to trust your intuitions and may discover you know far more than you gave yourself credit for. The morning tutorial is followed by a superb four-course food and wine matching lunch, during which you will have the chance to practise your newfound skills.

Want to know your Moët from your Bolly? This is the perfect opportunity to do so. Learn about Champagne, what goes into making it and let our Champagne Specialist Edwin Dublin guide you through 12 wines in a myriad of styles: blanc de blancs; blanc de noirs; non-vintage, vintage and prestige cuvées.
You’ll build your knowledge of Champagne as you taste wines from the likes of Pol Roger, Krug and Dom Pérignon. After your morning’s tuition, you’ll settle down for a specially prepared lunch with a further four vintage and “pudding” Champagnes to see just how versatile this wine is with food. You’ll come away able to express why you prefer zero dosage styles, or favour Bollinger over Pol Roger.

Champagne Gaston Chiquet, Tradition Brut, Premier Cru
Berry Bros. & Rudd Blanc de Blancs Champagne by Le Mesnil, Grand Cru
