Intermediate wine tasting
We’re excited to bring you our latest pairing event at WSET School London, with some help from Academy of Cheese’s Patrick McGuigan, our own Anjali Douglas.
The island of Madeira produces distinctive and highly prized wines that are arguably some of the most ageworthy in the world. Join Anjali Douglas DipWSET to explore six top examples alongside some fantastic cheeses selected by cheese writer (and wine fan!) Patrick McGuigan. Anjali and Patrick will guide you through the unique production process for both the wines and cheeses and introduce your palate to some new and delicious combinations. Come along to try something new or reaffirm your love for madeira and cheese!
We will be tasting six wine and cheese pairings, using the Academy of Cheese Structured Approach to Tasting Cheese, plus you will receive some top wine pairing tips.
