No tests. No homework. Just three hours, five wines and plenty of conversation. And, if you participate and fancy a WSET course at a later date, you’ll get 10% off!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOver the course of the session we’ll taste five very different wines, covering a range of styles, and use them to learn how to actually taste wine (rather than simply drink it).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe’ll look at grapes, climate, place and winemaking without getting too bogged down in the technical stuff. What are you actually looking for when you taste? Where do all those flavours come from? Does expensive mean better? What exactly are tannins? And are there really rules about what you’re supposed to drink with what?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe’ll also cover some of the genuinely useful stuff: how to make sense of a restaurant wine list, what to look for when choosing a bottle, common pitfalls to avoid, the wine terminology actually worth knowing, and how to sound like you know what you’re talking about without becoming unbearable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe’ll debunk a few wine myths along the way and leave plenty of time for questions. You can also send us questions beforehand — things you’ve always wanted to ask but felt you probably should already know — and we’ll tackle them in a Q\u0026amp;A.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe session is led by Must \u0026amp; Lees owner Chris Cassell, DipWSET and WSET educator. So while this very definitely isn’t a WSET course, you’ll be learning from someone who teaches them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou’ll leave with an information sheet, branded tasting notes and, hopefully, a lot more confidence next time you’re choosing, ordering or simply drinking wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe important bits:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* 3-hour session\u003cbr\u003e* Six wines to taste and discuss\u003cbr\u003e* How to taste wine\u003cbr\u003e* Understand how, why and where wine gets its flavour\u003cbr\u003e* Grapes, climate, place and winemaking explained\u003cbr\u003e* How to navigate a restaurant wine list\u003cbr\u003e* Wine myths debunked\u003cbr\u003e* Useful terminology and pitfalls to avoid\u003cbr\u003e* Submit your own questions for the Q\u0026amp;A\u003cbr\u003e* Take-home information sheet and tasting notes\u003cbr\u003e* Absolutely no exam\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo previous wine knowledge required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJust come thirsty and curious.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"shopify-section-product-template\" class=\"shopify-section\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/Product\" id=\"ProductSection\" data-section-id=\"product-template\" data-section-type=\"product-template\" data-image-zoom-type=\"lightbox\" data-show-extra-tab=\"false\" data-extra-tab-content=\"\" data-enable-history-state=\"true\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-single\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid product-single__hero\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item post-large--one-half\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv itemprop=\"offers\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/Offer\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-description rte\" itemprop=\"description\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThis tasting takes place in the Must \u0026amp; Lees Tasting Room in the \u003cspan\u003eMust \u0026amp; Lees at 57 Warren St Fitzrovia W1T 5NR.\u003c\/span\u003e Prices are per person. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003ePlease email\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cchrome_annotation role=\"link\"\u003ebookings@mustandlees.co.uk\u003c\/chrome_annotation\u003e with any dietary requirements or special requests.
