About This Event

A guided tasting from Cork Fine Wines of bottles off the trodden path that meet and exceed the standards that your favourites have set.Take a trip outside of your comfort zone in a tasting led by Mollie Chapin. Have you ever read names of grapes that delighted and confused you? Perhaps the idea of a Hungarian Furmint or Sicillian Frappato piqued your interest, but you were held back by the fear of trying something new? In this guided tasting, we will be putting all of those worries to rest as we explore regions and grapes that showcase outstanding quality and value. Along the way, we will explore why these wines are the absolute showstoppers that they are. We'll talk science, passion, history, and art- all of the things that make wine great, in a way that will make you fall in love with every sip. What's Included:Tasting of 6 wines + welcome bubbles + a nightcap sipExpert-led discussion with Mollie ChapinCheese and charcuterie boardExclusive 20% off all wine at Cork Fine Wines for the duration of the after-partySpaces are limited for this intimate experience.
