As an introduction, participants in the first two sessions will be taught the tasting grid based on international sommelier exams. Participants will go through different basic wines/varietals and learn how to assess qualities based on appearance, nose and palate before triangulating and coming to a conclusion on the varietal, region and vintage.
In the advanced level, there are subsequent 8 classes to focus on other families of grapes, how to classify them and subsequently pick out unique traits in order to identify the varietal, region and vintage.
6-9 wines per session. 75ml each wine. 180mins
