This is promised to be an enlightening tasting experience and couple of evenings. It’s a unique chance to discover why these different glasses, designed for different styles of wines, have become so popular. John will be speaking about how and why the different shape of glass makes a significant difference to the aroma and taste profile of a wine.
Using RIEDEL’s elegant Performance range, with guidance from John, we’ll have the opportunity to experience this for ourselves, tasting wines ideal for each of the four classic glass styles and discover how they compare when served in the “wrong” glass. It’s quite an eye opener which has continued to surprise many for many years, whether you’re enjoying the very simplest of wines or one for a special occasion.
On Wednesday 24 February we’ll be tasting two white wines using the Sauvignon Blanc (or “Crisp White Wine style”) glass and the Chardonnay glass.
On Wednesday 3 March we’ll be doing the same with two red wines and using the Cabernet/Merlot and Pinot Noir glass.
Ticket purchasers will receive one set of four of the Performance Range of RIEDEL glasses, normally £90 (you might like to add another set if there are more of you). Since tickets, which include the glasses, 4 bottles of wine (with a retail value of over £60) and this whole experience are available from £90 it’s a truly unmissable offer. This experience and the glasses are bound to bring a whole new dimension to your wine enjoyment. It’s also going to be a fun, informal as well as informative evening. You can choose to join us at 6.30pm or 8pm.
You can also order an extra set (or more) of these glasses when you place your order
