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.

Long term participant in Matthew's wine classes, hope to be for a long time yet. Fascinating, professional, very entertaining - you get to taste, explore and ask any questions about wines you may never try otherwise. Great interaction between attendees, and with tutor. AAA+++

Matthew was excellent and this is a great experience. The small group interaction was a perfect size and I would highly recommend this for yourself or for a gift for anyone who adores wine.
