Fine Wine Appreciation - passionate, independent wine education
Fine Wine Appreciation has been running for over 15 years in Melbourne, conducted by respected wine expert Matthew Hansen. As a highly acclaimed professional chef and educator, Matthew’s personable style and passionate approach ensures all those with a love of fine wine will benefit from his unique and insightful perspectives.
Most importantly, Matthew is Melbourne’s only completely independent educator, and not affiliated with any specific wineries, wine merchant or makers – all wines featured in his courses are offered on merit alone. Fine Wine Appreciation does not accept industry favours, and does not sell wine to participants.
As places are very limited we do not offer refunds. If by chance you are unable to attend you are welcome to send another person/s in your place.

Yet another wonderful eye-opening (and palate) evening in one of Matthew's classes. The wines chosen were top-notch and the company wonderful, as always. I can't recommend these classes enough, both for the access to actual wines, but for the discussion/instruction as well. Tough to say which is better... The selection of half old world and half Australian wines was excellent to taste the differences in styles.

This was my first ever class and I really wasn’t sure what to expect. I had such a fantastic time, met some lovely people and learned a lot. Our class was quite specific, concentrating only on Pinot Noirs, which I think was a little less overwhelming and gave us a chance to really focus our pallets and attention. All in all, a wonderful evening with fantastic wines, a very knowledgeable teacher and an expanded appreciation for Pinot Noirs. I very much look forwards to my next class.
