SUMMARY:[TAS] Blind Tasting Group #3
DESCRIPTION:Sommeliers Australia is excited to bring its monthly blind tasting group sessions to Tasmania! \nTasting wines blind is the best way to improve your palate. But three things often stand in the way – it can be costly\, it takes up time\, and it can be intimidating. Our monthly blind tasting sessions eliminate all of these obstacles. Simply book in\, turn up\, taste and expand your tasting ability\, with guidance from Sommeliers Australia’s hosts. At the conclusion of each bracket\, your host will give a short summary on the key pointers for the tasting of the wine\, and how to get to the correct conclusions. \nFour different wines – two whites and two reds – will be tasted each month. Wines are chosen primarily for their typicity and are a mixed bag of varieties\, origins\, quality and price points. \nSuitable for anyone in the industry wanting to practice blind tasting in a structured way\, those studying WSET and CMS\, or anyone looking to shake up their ‘cellar palate’. \n

SUMMARY:[TAS] Alternate Riesling Universe: A Tasting
DESCRIPTION:Riesling and Germany are synonyms in the wine world\, with an identity so inextricably linked that one can hardly be mentioned without the other. \nYet\, as the price of German Riesling (and Old World examples in general) goes up and the quantities available go down\, these classic wines may well be out of reach or unavailable for some Australian venues. \nBut as sommeliers and wine buyers we need to find affordable replacements from somewhere. So where do we go for quality alternatives? \nThe rest of the wine universe of course! \nJoin Sommeliers Australia’s David Newman (S.Smith & Son/Negociants Australia) and Michael Fisher (The Tasman\, A Luxury Collection Hotel) as they visit an ‘alternate Riesling universe’. Compare German examples vs. New World offerings across four brackets of varying sweetness; taste and discuss the regional\, stylistic\, price and quality options that open up for somms and buyers once they look beyond the Old World and explore what else is out there. \n  \nTO BOOK:\n\nBookings are essential and will be taken until 4pm\, Friday 2 February\, unless booked out prior.\n  \n  ⇒ Sommeliers Australia Members – $30\n      To access Members priced ticket please login to your Membership Account before selecting tickets. \n  ⇒ Non-Members – $60 \n  \n
