Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
Behind the Label Wine Evening - Tuesday 20th March
Following the success of the first Behind the Label, wine evening, I'm going to run this one-night course again on Tuesday 20th March. It will take place in my house on Pemberton Road.
Through supping on six wines from around the world the evening will explain things like:
- The difference between varieties, appellations and producers
- The three different types of producer; co-ops, domaines, négociants
- The difference between varietal labelling and appellation labelling
- Other key information about a wine (sweet or dry, late harvest, ageing...) and the terms often used to describe these attributes
- How wines are branded, so you can understand if the brand you recognise is a variety, an appellation, a producer or a whole wine region
- How wines are are labelled around the world and how all the above information can be recognised on a label, this includes examples from various different Countries, each with their own particular labelling quirks.
As per the other one night courses I run (like Sherry Night) it will cost £40 for the evening and run for about 1 hour 45 minutes (1 hour 30 plus 15 mins for questions / chat afterwards). Course notes and superior snacks (nuts, olives, almonds) are of course provided!
Plus anyone who comes to this evening will also get a £10 off voucher to one of my six week courses.
If you are interested in coming, then please let me know (see contact details below) and I'll put your name down. It should be a great night.
