About this event

An introduction to Europe’s most iconic wines and classic varieties, explored through 8 pours in a relaxed Northcote masterclass

Welcome to the Introduction to European Wines Masterclass!

Think you know European wine? Think again.

Join us at Northside Wines in Northcote for a relaxed and cheeky deep dive into the wines that shaped the world of wine. Over two delicious hours, we’ll taste our way through eight classic European wines — from crisp, mineral-driven whites to bold and structured reds — while unpacking the grapes, regions and traditions behind each glass.

Along the way, you’ll learn how to properly taste wine, how to tell your Pinot Noir from your Sangiovese, and why regions like Bordeaux, Burgundy, Rioja and Tuscany have become legendary.

Expect plenty of wine knowledge, zero snobbery, and a generous pour of bad dad jokes from our sommelier.

This class is perfect for curious beginners, casual wine drinkers, date nights, or anyone wanting to build confidence when choosing wine.

Come along, discover new favourites, and explore the wines that built the Old World.
