About Your Experience
This experience is a superb opportunity to learn about wine during a full one-day workshop held in the relaxed setting of a charming and newly converted barge situated in the new riverside quarter of Fountainbridge.
Guests will be welcomed at 9.30 am, for a unique workshop which provides the essential knowledge and practical tasting experience in wine to increase your confidence in the navigation and interpretation of restaurant wine lists.
Throughout the day, the tasting of 18 classic wines will cover the world's main grape varieties and wine styles. Food and wine matching principles will be introduced and put into practice during a revealing food and wine matching exercise. Wine service etiquette and how to identify and handle common wine faults will also be discussed.
Your host for the day has a wealth of knowledge and currently runs the sell-out Edinburgh Festival fringe event "Wine School at the fringe". She is also a recommended Tutor for the Wine and Spirit Education Trust and was nominated for the Riedel Trophy "WSET Educator of the Year 2007".
