Global Wine Tour - Exploring Wine Varieties

The "Exploring Wine Varieties" series of workshops caters to those who have discovered a passion for wine, but want to expand their knowledge beyond the traditional "noble" wine varieties.

Hosted at the Fine Wine Reserve's elegant tasting room, join David Calado, Global Wine Tour's Founder & Education Director, as he takes you on a visual presentation together with a flight of 6 very different wines focusing on non-noble wine varieties. Some examples of these might include Malbec, Pinot Grigio, Sangiovese, Torrontes, Viognier, Nero D'Avola, Tempranillo, Touriga Nacional, Petit Verdot, Chenin Blanc, Pinotage or Aglianico. There are numerous wine varieties used throughout the world, and many of them are only native to certain countries. Many of these varietals make wonderful wines, and Global Wine Tour wants to introduce them to you to expand your love of wine as well as your knowledge of the subject.

Many wine afficionados are stuck in the Shiraz and Chardonnay box when it comes to making wine choices. Global Wine Tour wants to take you out of the box you've painted yourself into, and open you up to a whole world of wonderful wines waiting for you to discover them!
