With the year-end holidays just around the corner, we are bringing the outstanding Fine Vintage version of WSET’s Level 1 course, The Foundation of Wine, is a great introduction to wine basics and styles, and we taste 14 different wines to give you a solid grounding (and not incidentally, to help you find more wine to enjoy!)
The course is held at the outstanding Cork & Flame restaurant where chef Justin Hayes creates wonderfully wine-friendly dishes - you can sample them at lunch or better still, stay on for dinner after the class!
We are well aware how conscious we need to be about health measures, and we’ve taken great care in structuring this course to meet all possible health concerns and social guidelines. There is plenty of distance between seats, sanitizer is available and much more. For a full explanation of our safety measures AND a very special offer, visit this page on the Fine Vintage website. The offer gets you access to some terrific videos and a free online course from Fine Vintage, but move quickly - it’s only available for a short time!
Wine is about sharing, and we do that in the most socially responsible way in this course. Want to get out of the house and taste some wine and share ideas and impressions? Here’s a great way to do it! And, hint, hint, it would make a terrific holiday gift…
For more information and to register, just go to the Level 1 page!
Benvenuto Brunello, an event held simultaneously in eight cities worldwide, was the debut of the storied 2019 vintage of Brunello di Montalcino, Tuscany’s classic, iconic and all-sangiovese wine. I was the presenter for one of the three American debut tastings, and have the story here.
