Wine tasting with a view, what could be better! Get ready to try, taste and experience some beautiful bottles and embark on many incredible wine journeys with our short wine masterclasses at the Gordon Ramsay Academy, powered by HexClad.
Guided by expert sommeliers and wine educators from Gordon Ramsay Restuarants, you'll get to delve into a different aspect of wine tasting from the stunning Academy kitchen, as you watch the hustle and bustle of London 58 floors below.
With our 'Aromas' class, our wine experts have chosen five wines that showcase different grapes and regions (both red and white) and how unique and individual smells affect how they taste.
This is a great starting point for anyone interested in learning how to taste and choose wines, as well as a relaxed and fun experience for everyone who is interested in wine on any level, or fancies trying a few glasses with friends!
