with wine educator Sam Povey and food photographer Georgia Glynn-Smith
Uncover the stories behind the flavour as you travel to remote wine regions, meet eccentric winemakers and lift the lid on how wine is made.
But this class isn't just about how to taste wine. It's about learning to trust your senses and developing your own palate. Whether you're a seasoned connoisseur or a complete novice, The Art of Wine masterclass is the perfect opportunity to deepen your appreciation for this beloved beverage, with themes including:
Copy cats and best buys – doppelgangers for more expensive wines think Picpoul instead of Chablis
Scandalous wines – Austrian antifreeze, fraudulent Burgundy and how Harvey's Bristol Cream almost sank Spain
The history of wine – discover the origins of the wines you know and love, taste some authentically historic styles of wine from the Caucasus mountains to the world's first fizzy wine
Anti-snobbery wine – joyful wines that you can embrace without needing to know about vintages, grape varieties or even wear red trousers!
