Wine Regions
Learning through tasting is the most fun way to pick up wine knowledge. You will also find out exactly what all those confusing terms mean, and hear great stories about the traditions and wine-makers that make these bottles so delicious. Add in some serious soil, plant and chemistry knowledge, and you have yourself a tasting evening! During the tastings focusing on wine regions you will learn what distinguishes one region from another to produce such diverse tastes and mouthfeel.
Our professional Sean has over 15 years of knowledge and experience, and has lived in four different wine regions. He has studied the particulars of these French regions first hand. He has also studied WSET wine training and through simple passion, learned about the many wine regions around the world.
Choose your favourite region, or one of our previously run themes for your own special learning event. We can propose online tastings currently – either we send you a list of wines to buy, or we can packaged a tasting box for you.
