The science of wine tasting

-

What makes wine taste the way it does? Why do some people taste things differently?  

Taste your way through a range of Plumpton Estate wines with Sarah Clarke, Wine Sales Manager for Plumpton Estate. She’ll guide you through a range of their award-winning sparkling and still wines, produced by Plumpton students, wine-growing and winemaking experts in the nearby South Downs.  

Compare notes with your fellow wine tasters, discover your own palate and understand which wines to pick – or to avoid – and hear about the taste, stories and craftsmanship behind each bottle that’s produced at the UK centre of excellence for wine education.
