Über uns
Join our friendly members (and those of other groups) from all over the world for wonderful online tasting events (- or private tastings, see winetastrs.com. Make friends, exchange stories and learn all about beer, wine, cheese and spirits. We organise everything from informal get-togethers to more structured and educational tasting sessions with expert speakers.
We generally chat in English, but discussion often breaks out in German and French as well. There is usually a slide-show with photos and diagrams to help attendees to improve their language skills and fully understand all the facts and figures.
I look forward to clinking glasses with you!
Cheers, Sean

Wine Tasting Weekend in Champagne
Reims Cathedral, Pl. du Cardinal Luçon, 51100 Reims, Reims, FRWe are delighted and excited to announce another wine tasting weekend in the spectacular and historic town of Reims, focusing (of course) on the region's wonderful Champagne wines.
This November we will host a weekend in the most interesting city in the area, sometimes called "Rheims" in English.. Guided by wine expert Sean, you will taste many AOC bubblies of various producers, styles, years and grape varieties – including a great selection from the Aube vineyards which are 70km south of Epernay, and therefore sometimes overlooked.
What’s more, we’ll sample the rare still wines and digestifs from this magical kingdom of viniculture! Additionally we will take the opportunity to learn about some scandalously little-known northern Burgundy gems, and other regional treasures, as we tour the Salon des Vignerons Indépendants, which takes place during our stay.
Along the way you will learn all about doseage levels, malolactic choice, lees time, cru status, grower Champagnes, autolysis, remuage, dégorgement, saignée rosés, bottle sizes, vin de réserve, marc, ratafia, liqueurs d’expédition et de tirage, muselets, pupitres, guyot double etc and so on!
We start with a wine tasting buffet. This allows us to try some of the more esoteric local classics that are less likely to be on offer at restaurants and winery visits. It also enables us to look at the terroir, geography, and history of the Champagne region, and enjoy some great food pairings.
The following evenings you will eat, and drink, at two of Reims’ best local eateries, with wine and bubbly matches for the courses. To top off the weekend we will visit an independent vineyard, and of course continue the tasting.
If you haven't been to Reims, it could be this wonderful city and its sensational history that steals the show for you!
For those of you who attended this weekend in 2025, all the events are the same, except we have upped the ante on the restaurants. We will be eating in the more expensive cousins of the establishments from last year!
To see the full itinerary check out champagne weekend posted on our website.

Total price for all events during the weekend is 540 euros.
