Why this workshop

Two hours to learn to talk about wine… and to choose it

No lecture: we play, we taste, we compare. You leave with simple pointers, useful from your very next meal.

  • No prerequisites

    The opening questionnaire is there to place you, not to judge you, whether you're a beginner or already have some bearings.

  • Playful and participative

    The blind tasting turns every glass into a guessing game. We talk, we compare our impressions.

  • Useful pairings

    The food and wine pairing helps you choose the right wine for the dishes you serve at home.

  • By a private lake

    The workshop is held at the Domaine du Dahu, around a 3-hectare private lake, 20 minutes from Saint-Émilion.

The running order

Four stages, about 2 hours

The tasting is accompanied by an assortment of charcuterie and cheese.

  1. To start

    Step 1: The questionnaire

    A quiz on wine and wine tasting to gauge your knowledge, with no pressure and a smile.

  2. Blind

    Step 2: Two mystery white wines

  3. Guided

    Step 3: A wine and its estate

    A guided tasting of a wine, and a discovery of the estate it comes from.

  4. For home

    Step 4: Food and wine pairing

    How to choose the right wine for the dishes you like to serve. Pointers to reuse at home.
