SUMMARY:Sean's Legendary Champagne Tasting
DESCRIPTION:Berlin Champagne Tasting\nOur yearly champagne tasting has come around. \n  \nJoin us in person once again for our famous festive bubbly tasting. 6 genuine AOC Champagnes – with a couple of real surprises – and a “French 75” cocktail to finish. \nAs usual\, we will learn all about the fascinating history of this most iconic of drinks and the details of how it is made. The subtle differences in taste will amaze you. \n  \nI will employ photos\, maps and diagrams to help explain everything about these delicious tipples. This is an amazing chance to really compare and contrast styles and flavours. \nAlong the way you’ll learn some crucial info and tips: How should you open the bottle? Who invented the traditional method? What’s the best way to keep sparkling wine? Brut / Zero / Sec…which “dosage” should you choose? Why is the cork that funny shape? When were the best vintages? Where do the best value Champagnes come from? All these questions and many more will be answered as we “taste the stars” (as Dom Perignon described it). \nWe will also enjoy delicious snacks chosen to complement the wines. \nThe event takes place in a penthouse in Schöneberg. \n  \nAbout your wine professional:\nWith years of experience living in viticultural regions\, importing and exporting wine\, and running bars and wine shops\, Sean has a lifetime of information\, opinion and stories to share. \nBefore the event you can learn more about the history of champagne by reading Sean’s blog on Women and Champagne \nSean runs regular tasting occasions which focus on wine\, beer and Cognac tastings\, held around a theme such as country of origin\, food pairing or finding more esoteric links with wine; for example mythology\, art or veganism. \n  \nCheck out the great tasting reviews from our wine tasting participants.

SUMMARY:A Stunning Tuscan Wine Tasting Starring Rigoloccio Wines
DESCRIPTION:Wine Tasting featuring Tuscan specials\nTuscan wine offers us so much to enjoy. Firstly\, there are the delicious wines: fresh vibrant whites and exuberant\, complex reds based on the “blood of Jupiter“ itself – Sangiovese. \nSecondly\, we have millennia of history\, legends and intrigue. From the Etruscans\, via the Romans\, the renaissance and the introduction of the quality triangle system all the way to the great DOCG scandal of the 1970s! \nI have a wonderful selection of 7 bottles that covers tradition and innovation\, power and finesse. The line up includes Chianti\, Brunello\, Vino Nobile and the blockbuster Abundantia Supertuscan 2018 (4.4 on Vivino!). \nLet’s taste them together at an excellent Italian restaurant in Mitte that offers both la cucina raffinata and good value dishes. The deal is that you commit to ordering at least a main course. \nThis will be a 3G event\, and I’ll limit numbers so that we can stay a responsible distance from each other. \n  \nWith years of experience living in viticultural regions\, importing and exporting wine\, and running bars and wine shops\, Sean has a lifetime of information\, opinion and stories to share. \nYou can read some of his unique articles on subjects like how to find great wines for cheaper prices and woman in the wine industry. \nSean runs occasional activities which are beloved by the many regular participants. They focus on wine\, beer and Cognac tastings\, held around a theme such as country of origin\, food pairing or finding more esoteric links with wine; for example mythology\, art or veganism.

SUMMARY:Wine and Art Exhibition with artist Libby Page
DESCRIPTION:The synergies of wine and art\nThis very special event will focus on the synergies between landscape art and wine\, both vivid expressions of the four forces of earth\, wind\, fiery sunshine and water. \nThese two ever-linked art forms covert this elemental power into a fabulous spectrum of colour. Libby is famous for her interpretation of the Mediterranean light illuminating the trees\, waterways and vines of the Languedoc. But her new work also reflects on German forest leaves and morning skies. \nWith wines from these same regions we can mimic the spectacular spectrum in glasses of blue-reds\, straw-coloured whites\, orange wines\, rosés and amber Muscat. \nSo join us at Libby’s studio – in an exciting artists’ cooperative overlooking an old Stasi prison – as we enjoy the colours of the palette and the palate. \nSipping these powerful wines\, listening to a professional artist and looking at the glorious images will be an antidote for the winter blues! \n\n\n\nThe tasting will start at 4pm\, and there will be light snacks available.\n\n\n\nAbout the artist:\n2016-2020 “It was the vivid landscapes of Southern France in particular the majestic plane trees lining the Canal du Midi that drew me back to painting. \nDuring my studies\, the teachers in drawing and sculpture inspired me the most and I completed a BA in sculpture in London. \nLife then took me down to the silvery light filled vineyards and tree lined roads where warm\, strong light vibrates through everything and colours gain fullness and importance. \nI would daydream how to mix that blue sky or distant purple mountains. Could I capture the warm smell of summer evenings or the rustle of the breeze in the plane trees with paint? \nSunshine has a capacity of melting away our troubles and lifting our spirits so I infuse my paintings with the hope-giving light and warmth that the South has shown to me. \nI am delighted when I receive feedback from clients telling me that my work has helped them through a hard time or lifts their mood each day. This is exactly why I do what I do!” \n\n\n\n\nAbout the wine professional:\n\n\n\nWith years of experience living in viticultural regions\, importing and exporting wine\, and running bars and wine shops\, Sean has a lifetime of information\, opinion and stories to share. \nYou can read some of his unique articles on subjects like how to find great wines for cheaper prices and woman in the wine industry. \nSean runs occasional activities which are beloved by the many regular participants.

SUMMARY:The Wines of Montpellier
DESCRIPTION:Wine tasting in Montpellier – contact us for details! \nThe Wines of Montpellier\, Crossroads of the Midi\nSituated in the north of the Languedoc\, near the borders with the Rhône Valley and the Provence wine regions\, Montpellier is an amazing city with an astonishing wine-making heritage. \nThe various climates and terroirs – salt-flats\, lagoons\, marshland\, river valleys\, pine forests\, mountains\, garrigue\, coastal areas and dinosaur nesting colonies* – contribute to unique microclimates and biodiversity. \nThe wine history starts with the wisdom of Europe’s most ancient tribes and continues today with the innovation of our super-connected modern life – and encompasses all periods in-between. \nTravelling regularly to this area\, I have brought back a range of fascinating and delicious bottles – AOCs\, IGTs and even a rogue Vin de France. These reds\, whites and rosés tell the story of this spectacular crossroads in the Midi\, with its Phonecian\, Phocaean\, North African\, Greek\, Roman\, British and Antipodean influences. \nI will also supply genuine tapenade from the region along with olives\, and other typical Mediterranean pâtés! \nThis event\, in an airy penthouse apartment in Schöneberg\, will follow 3G protocol and costs just 30€ per head. \nSanté ! Sean \n* yep\, really: Dinosaur Museum \n  \nAbout our wine professional Sean: \nWith years of experience living in viticultural regions\, importing and exporting wine\, and running bars and wine shops\, Sean has a lifetime of information\, opinion and stories to share. \nSean has been hosting wine tasting events for 15 years\, which are beloved by the many regular participants. They focus on wine\, beer and Cognac tastings\, held around a theme such as country of origin\, food pairing or finding more esoteric links with wine; for example mythology\, art or veganism. \nSean’s wine choices tend towards vegan and organic grower-wines\, from small and independent wineries. Typically he likes to combine classics with little-known discoveries within the same tasting activity. \n  \nCheck out our great reviews from previous events!\n

SUMMARY:Riesling and Pinot!
DESCRIPTION:Support the Ahr and compare worldwide Riesling and Pinot!\nThe Ahr valley suffered terrible losses during the recent floods. The vineyards – some of the best in Germany – were not spared. Let’s taste a couple of their signature wines – Riesling and Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir) and learn about this great region. \nAt the same time\, we could try something very interesting: compare these varietals with Rieslings and Pinots from around the globe. I have examples from New Zealand\, Luxembourg\, France and Italy (list not exhaustive) – so we can see how climate\, soil and culture affect the wine in the glass. \nI will supply the maps and diagrams – as well as the bread\, meats and cheese – to make sure that the evening is enjoyable and educational. \nPlease make sure that you are vaccinated\, tested or recovered. \nThe venue is a beautiful airy apartment in Schöneberg – on the roof terrace weather permitting. \n  \nProst!

SUMMARY:Portuguese Wine Tasting with English Cheese!
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our next informative and fun tasting\, this time featuring Portuguese wine and English cheese. \nPort and Stilton – the perfect combination of Douro wine and English cheese. But are there other great Anglo-Iberian combinations to be discovered? \nThe range and quality of Portuguese wine is legendary. Regions such as Alentejo\, Dão and Bairrada offer amazing flavours and great value for money. Since I have just come back from Blighty with some Cheshire\, Shropshire Red\, Wensleydale and other delectable dairy produce\, we can enjoy a Brexit-busting evening of wonderful wine and delicious cheese. \nWe will learn all about the unpronounceable grape varieties\, stunning landscapes and fascinating history of Europe’s first protected wine regions. \nThe event takes place on a roof-top terrasse\, with cover if it rains. Most of us will be vaccinated\, so it should be a safe and happy gathering. \nI really look forward to seeing you there!

SUMMARY:Loire Valley Wine-Tasting
DESCRIPTION:The Loire Valley has some of the most fascinating wines\, food and history anywhere in Europe. I lived right in the centre of this astonishing region for several years and still have a close connection to the area and its vintners. \nIt must be the only vignoble with world-class examples of all these wine styles: dry whites\, sweet whites\, sparkling wines\, fresh reds\, complex reds and rosés. We will taste one of each type – and 2 of the whites because it is illegal not to host a Loire tasting without both a Sauvignon Blanc and a Chenin Blanc. \nThe seven sensational bottles will be paired with the traditional cheeses and pâtés from the region. As usual we will learn all about the grape varieties as well as the terroir and history of these sensational vineyards: we’ll be hearing about kings\, castles\, giants\, monks\, donkeys\, shellfish\, Tintin and Leonardo da Vinci. \nThe event takes place on a roof-top terrace\, with cover if it rains. Most of us will be vaccinated\, so it should be a safe and happy gathering. \nI really look forward to seeing you there! \nSean \n  \nContact us if you would like to organise a private event for family\, friends or colleagues. \n  \nImprove your English of the wine industry with these fun games and quizzes!

SUMMARY:Remarkable Rhône Valley Wine-Tasting
DESCRIPTION:I have a bunch of extremely interesting Rhône Valley wines to share with you for our first “in-person“ tasting! \nWe will sample some delicious Rhôdanian blends from Patricia Alexandre’s innovative Domaine des Peyre in the Southern Rhône as well as the lesser-known but super-prestigious Saint-Peray and Saint-Joseph from the north of the region. \nThe weather is likely to be warm\, so we have whites and rosés as well as signature fruity reds. \nThe event takes place on a roof-top terrace! There is cover if it rains. \nAs usual we will learn all about the grape varieties – and there are some surprises in store – as well as the terroir and history of these sensational Rhône valley vineyards: we’ll be hearing about Greeks\, Romans\, Popes\, Barons and the Rhône Rangers. \nI have also selected some bread\, sensational local Alpine cheese and charcuterie to pair with the wines. A lot of us will be vaccinated\, so we should be a safe and happy gathering. \nI really look forward to seeing you there! Sean\n0151 71 72 1627 \n  \nCheck out our great reviews from previous events! \nRead the wine notes on my blog to learn more about the tasting themes we have covered over many years.
