One Day Wine School
Our one-day wine schools are a great way to get a thorough overview of a region in a day.
Starting in the morning with tea and coffee on arrival, we spend around 2 hours exploring the region, with 8-12 wines showcasing all different styles. With the basics covered, we head to our vaulted Napoleon cellar for an aperitif and to put the morning’s education to the test with 5 more wines paired over a delicious lunch, crafted by Head Chef Stewart Turner.
The day finishes around 3.30pm.

Description
This day offers the perfect introduction to the varied styles of wine produced around Spain. The morning will form a comprehensive tutored tasting of the country’s wines, learning about everywhere from Rías Baixas to Rueda, and Rioja to Ribera del Duero, sampling wines from famous producers and rising stars. Armed with new-found knowledge, you’ll move on to a food-and-wine-matching lunch, offering the chance to enjoy iconic Spanish wines alongside cuisine designed to partner each bottle on show. As well as illustrious names such as Vega Sicilia and López de Heredia, you’ll taste the wines of supremely talented but lesser known producers – including Cava that will convince you of this sparkling’s potential.
