BASKET & CHECKOUT

Our free Roberson Wine School 'Introduction to Wine' tastings aim to give those with little or no knowledge of wine a good grounding in the basics. They are ideal for anybody who is interested in wine and would like to learn more about it, or for those who would like to improve their basic knowledge before coming to our regular Thursday night tastings. Our aim is to inform without pretension or talking down in a relaxed, convivial atmosphere with some great wine.

The complete course takes place over four tastings, but you can come to as many as you like and not feel left out - each covers a different aspect of the world of wine:

• What wine is, what goes into it and how grape varieties affect the way it tastes.
• Where wine comes from and how the geography and climate of a vineyard affects the way it tastes.
• Who makes wine and how the decisions they make in the winery affect the way it tastes.
• When a wine is ready to drink and how its age and the quality of the vintage in which it is produced affect the way it tastes.

We run these tastings regularly throughout the year, so be sure to keep an eye on our tastings page for full details and to sign up.
