Designed for novice and advanced wine connoisseurs alike, Sensory Evaluation of Sparkling Wine course is a one-of-a-kind opportunity to explore the aspects of sparking wine, aiming to help participants gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of the essential aspects of sensory evaluation that are often overlooked in most wine tastings.
