Yorkshire Wine School - Day Classes

Wine Tasting for everyone! We run fun, informal wine tasting evenings and courses which are designed to guide you through the wonderful world of wine. People come to our events to learn a little more about food and drink, but also to meet new friends who share in their passion for wine! People attend our evenings and classes on their own, in couples or in small groups. Come and join the fun!

We attended the Introduction to Wine tasting day in Leeds at Stockdales restaurant. We thought we knew a little bit about wine already but wow we were wrong! This was a fantastic day from start to finish, very relaxed but so informative, what they don’t know about wine isn’t worth knowing and banished a lot of the myths I’d heard and believed. We’re now drinking a larger variety of wines rather than going for the same bottle every time. The wines sampled were also available at supermarkets so easily accessible if you want them again. This day is suitable for complete novices and also if you’ve been a wine fan for years, we learnt loads! Also the venue was great and included a delicious dinner. Make sure you get the train or bus home, we were a wee bit merry as kept going back for another ‘taste’ of the delicious wines. We will be back again for a different session to continue our education. Thank you!

I booked a day on the wheel after doing a course in Leeds a few years ago. It was wonderful, Rachel is a great teacher and helped me make some pieces I will definitely be keeping for myself unlike everything else I've ever made! I am going back once lockdown allows! Thank you Rachel!
