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
Join us for a comprehensive, introductory day course exploring one of the world’s most famous wine regions – Bordeaux. The two-hour morning masterclass in our Pickering Cellar will explore the major grape varieties, terroir, sub-regions and wine styles of Bordeaux. Guests will then enjoy a four-course luncheon with paired wines in our 17th century Napoleon Cellar.
Throughout the day, we will cover white, red and sweet wines, including wines from some of Bordeaux’s most famous towns and producers. You will also taste wines with additional bottle age to highlight why these wines are perfect for cellaring.
