Wine Schools

"Our monthly wine schools are a great way to learn about and taste wines from a particular region or country in a relaxed and informal way. In just 90 minutes, you'll taste between six and eight wines chosen by myself, which I think have the most contrast and interest. I'll also give you an insight into the winemakers and the history of wine from that country or region."

Wine Dinners

"Not only will you get the opportunity more often than not to meet the winemaker at our wine dinners, but you'll get the chance to taste some fascinating wines matched with a bespoke menu created by our Head Chef, Robby Jenks."

Wines and Spirits Education Trust (WSET) courses

"If you have a passion for wine or are simply intrigued to learn more about it, then our WSET courses are ideal for anyone wanting to improve their wine knowledge. From grape varieties, styles and food and wine pairing topics to storing and serving wine, the courses are interactive, informative and fun as well as giving you the chance to become WSET qualified."
