Ben was a great host, very knowledgeable and absolutely NOT a wine snob. He made me feel comfortable to ask questions, and I never felt left behind.

I came out of this course with some general knowledge on what to look for when selecting a wine. I am now educated enough and feel confident to have a conversation about wines. The course was a little more advanced than I thought it might be, however I was very pleased with the information that I have retained.

Ben, our Host was very well informed on the subject, and I enjoyed his very pleasant and highly informative session. Ben is clearly very knowledgeable on subject, with a pleasant and flowing delivery. With particular relevant Australian, knowledge being readily forthcoming and easily and clearly explained details of the key aspects of aged wines, I found the 2 hour session to pass all to briefly. A very enjoyable experience, to be well recommended for all persons furthering their appreciation ...

Enjoyable & informative sampling/tasting & discussion amongst 18 or so people who enjoy a nice wine. We sampled a range of white, red & fortified wines from Australia. Ben provided great insight & knowledge on the wines & made the evening a success with an open & friendly atmosphere. Excellent way to spend an evening after work!
