SUMMARY:[VIC] Blind Tasting Group #12
DESCRIPTION:Tasting wines blind is the best way to improve your palate. But three things often stand in the way – it can be costly\, it takes up time\, and it can be intimidating. \nOur monthly blind tasting sessions eliminate all of these obstacles\, because for 1 hour it’s just between you and what’s in the glass! \nSimply book in\, turn up\, taste and expand your tasting ability\, with guidance from Sommeliers Australia’s host Noah Rozenfeld (CMS Advanced\, Circl Wine House). \nAt the conclusion of each bracket\, your host will give a short summary on the key pointers for the tasting of the wine\, and how to get to the correct conclusions. \nFour different wines – two whites and two reds – will be tasted each month. Wines are chosen primarily for their typicity and are a mixed bag of varieties\, origins\, quality and price points. \nSuitable for anyone in the industry wanting to practice blind tasting in a structured way\, those studying WSET and CMS\, or anyone looking to shake up their ‘cellar palate’.

SUMMARY:[VIC] 10 Crus of Beaujolais
DESCRIPTION:Ten villages\, ten terroirs\, ten unique expressions of Gamay. Beaujolais is more than just a region\, it’s a ‘mosaic’ of these distinct Crus\, each crafting Gamay wines of remarkable character. Explore the diverse soils and microclimates that shape these exceptional wines\, from the volcanic slopes of Côte de Brouilly to the sandy soils of Fleurie\, and discover the distinct character and personality of each Cru – a testament to the power of terroir. \nIn this masterclass\, hosted by Liinaa Berry\, Sommeliers Australia will put together a varied selection of Gamay\, representing the diversity of the 10 crus of Beaujolais. \nSeats are limited.
