Can you tell the difference between red and white wine? Of course you can! But what if we hide the colour?

You will be introduced to the Wine Tasting Tool of the Wine world by using the Systematic Approach to Wine tasting and learn the difference between:
Finally we demystify the dark art of food and drink pairing. Don’t expect a three course meal, but the samples provided will teach you why some wines are ‘food wines’ (pretty dull alone but awe inspiring with food) and other wines are better glugged ice cold.
After the Sensory Introduction to Wine Tasting, you will never look at a glass of wine the same.
