Be a part of us for our first Decanter Style With The Specialists occasion

For the primary time ever, Decanter is providing readers and wine lovers alike the prospect to see behind the scenes of our famend panel tastings and expertise first hand what it means to style like an skilled.

Decanter’s panel tastings are one of the vital rigorous workouts in blind tasting, the place a panel of three consultants style and rating as much as 100 wines a day, primarily based on standards set by the Decanter editorial staff.

We’re delighted to introduced that this autumn will see the beginning of our new sequence of month-to-month experiences: Decanter Style with the Specialists.

Held on the Decanter workplaces, in our new tasting suite in West London, an unique group of 12 folks will discover ways to rating panel tasting wines with the consultants who first rated them.

The primary tasting

The primary tasting shall be primarily based on our Médoc Grand Cru Classé 2017 panel tasting held earlier this yr, and can happen on Thursday 6 October from 6.30pm, hosted by Andy Howard MW.

On arrival, you’ll be welcomed to a Champagne Taittinger reception.

Alongside Andy who will provide his skilled steerage on judging and scoring, you’ll then blind style 10 wines from that panel tasting, specifically chosen for this masterclass. The wines will then be revealed and mentioned.

Regardless of being described as a ‘forgotten classic’ in Bordeaux, 2017 produced a beautiful array of wines which are already approachable and greater than deserve their place on tables and in cellars.

Restricted to simply 12 company per tasting, tickets are £145 per individual. We advocate reserving now to keep away from disappointment.
