A European Odyssey ($125) Thursday 21st March (7 - 9PM) (Copy)

  • Sydney Wine Centre 119 Harris St Pyrmont, NSW, 2009 Australia (map)

Summary

With over 400 native or indigenous varieties there is a lot more to Italian wine than Chianti or Pinot Grigio.

Anyone for a Franciacorta?

We take the opportunity to dip our toes into the Aegean Sea and explore the newly emerging world of Greek wine in order to understand that there is a whole lot more than Retsina to play with.

We also have a sneak peek at Portugal, Europe’s worst kept secret of wine tourism with one or two other obscure gems thrown in.

Level of Experience

We assume a basic level of wine knowledge however this tasting is aimed at anyone with a sense of adventure and is not afraid to step outside their comfort zone.

The evening will be entertaining and relaxed but with plenty of information thrown in.

Food

Cheese boards and antipasto will be provided along with some fun examples of food and wine matching however we do recommend a light meal or snack before the tasting.
