Wine is for pleasure. We enjoy the sensory experience of wine as an aperitif or with food, or as a social icebreaker, or simply to taste.
We can enjoy wine even more if we know how to appreciate it, if we know whether we are drinking a quality wine, or if it is worth the cost.
It is actually better for our health if we take more time to appreciate the wine in our glass, because then we tend to drink less. As well, quality wines have more to appreciate!
Good wines have an intensity of flavour which lasts longer in the mouth, so again we tend to drink less. We may pay a bit more for a quality wine, which again, depending on our budget, may lead us to drink less.
However, less expensive quality wines can be found if we know what to look for.
So, if we know how to evaluate wines and how to find quality wines, we can enjoy wine more.
Please note that you must be aged 18+ to attend this course.
Please do not drink and drive.
