Discernment teaches that the finest wines are not necessarily the most memorable … that a boutique wine with its special local character and flavour may delight much more, especially with the right food and in the right company or surroundings.

Our fun and interactive Friends of Wine course uncorks this and a multitude of other facts and tips that will enhance your lifestyle, whether you are dining out, entertaining at home, selecting wine, savouring it or simply discussing it - for everyone from the experienced aficionado to the new wine lover.

The three to four-hour course casts new light on wine etiquette in restaurants and at home; characteristics of cultivars and the differences between them; food and wine pairing; evoking sensory delights with bouquet, taste and colour; wine glasses - table settings, use and care; wine storage; selecting wine (tips/tricks from a sommelier); and reading the food and wine menu.

We at Friends of Wine have a passion for wine that we are bursting to share with you, along with our passion for good food and socialising with good friends, as you will also discover from our FRIENDS OF WINE COURSE, BOUTIQUE WINE EVENTS, and BOUTIQUE WINE TOURS.
