Rebecca Gibb's Wine Workshop
A special buy one get the second half price on my beginner's wine tasting course
If you know nothing about wine or just enjoy drinking it, a one-day course is a sociable and fun way to learn how to taste wine like the professionals. Swirl, slurp and spit (or swallow) your way through the major grape varieties and wine regions of the world from Bordeaux to the Barossa.
Why?
This one day course is for you if you:
- Find the wine aisle confusing
- Think restaurant wine lists are a minefield
- Are stuck in a Sauvignon or Pinot Gris rut
- Would like to know the basics on food and wine matching
- Want to buy an unusual gift for a partner, parent, friend, or colleague
- Simply feel like doing something different with your weekend, tasting 10 wines, having a delicious lunch, and meeting some nice people
Where?
Longroom in Ponsonby, Auckland.
The courses are held in the venue’s fabulous private room.
When?
Time: 10:30am to 3:30pm
- Saturday 4 December
