The Art of Aroma Recognition

Most wine drinkers recognise only a fraction of the aromas present in their glass. This masterclass will transform your tasting experience.

🎨 Jean Lenoir's Le Nez du Vin — Master Kit

Created by the pioneering oenologist Jean Lenoir, Le Nez du Vin is the world's most respected aroma training system. Used by sommeliers, wine educators, and serious enthusiasts worldwide, it captures 54 essential aromatic signatures found in wine.

During this masterclass, you'll work hands-on with the complete Master Kit, learning to identify and name the aromas you've always sensed but couldn't quite place.

🪵 Oak Kit

Explore aromas imparted by barrel ageing—vanilla, toast, cedar, smoke. Essential for understanding aged reds and oaked whites.

⚠️ Faults Kit

Learn to identify cork taint, oxidation, and other flaws. Knowing what's wrong is as important as knowing what's right.
