C FOR CAUCASUS:
THE CRADLE OF WINE

Going back to where it all began… 🍷 Travel to the real origins of your favourite drink. From intriguing ‘amber’ wines to deep, soulful reds, Nika curates 5 wines from Georgia and Armenia, each telling a story shaped by thousands of vintages.

To match? A spread of homemade treats with recipes from our dear Caucasian friends, and a perfect setting too – our favourite tasting room in Eixample next to a century-old bodega.

  • β€Ž β€Ž Really informative and enjoyable. Nika brought history, geography, food and culture all together to teach us more about the wine we know and lots of grapes and regions I didn't know, along with some great recommendations for what to buy next. Looking forward to more Wine Alphabet courses in the future.

  • β€Ž β€Ž Wine Alphabet put together a bespoke oyster and wine tasting for 5 people and it was absolutely incredible and fantastic value for money. Not only were they great, but the wines and oysters were also delicious and her private tasting room was perfect for our group. I will be back and would 100% recommend to anyone looking for a relaxed but informative wine tasting in Barcelona.

  • β€Ž β€Ž Wine Alphabet were fantastic to work with! Not only did they take care of the shipping and logistics, but also created customised experiences with wines special to each region where our virtual tastings were held (and also in English and Spanish). I knew I was in good hands and I look forward to working with them again!
    Amanda Massey Field Marketing Manager Lead - EMEA, Branch.io
  • β€Ž β€Ž We have been working with Wine Alphabet for two years now on different projects all for Veselwines.com. Initially they found a range of new exciting suppliers for us which enabled us to expand our catalogue with really great wines. More recently they have helped us with categories and product expertise for our website build and also our Social Media strategy. Wine Alphabet are professional and highly knowledgeable consultants for us on all wine topics and I would highly recommend them.

  • β€Ž β€Ž We had a teambuilding wine tasting session with Wine Alphabet and I cannot recommend it enough. Nika is incredibly knowledgeable and her explanations really helped us understand the fine art of pairing food and wine. She created a friendly and relaxed atmosphere & the session was the perfect balance of fun and learning! The wine selection was fantastic and the bonus is we have all discovered a personal new favourite wine.

  • β€Ž β€Ž What a great 4-week course on Imbibing Italy! Loved how Nika brought in the history of each region covered as well as amazing details of each grape. Adding in food pairings allowed me to create some Italian wine nights with some friends and appear to know what I was doing!! I'm sure I was the least experienced participant, but so glad I joined this class as I learned so much and am more intrigued to expand my knowledge in more detail moving forward. The wine selection was fantastic and the bonus is we have all discovered a personal new favourite wine.
    Deanne Weatherly Imbibing Italy Course
  • β€Ž β€Ž Nika is a wonderful professional and a storyteller! With her help wines become not just names but wonderful stories of winemakers. She shares plenty of interesting and practical information about each region which helps to appreciate and makes you fall in love with Spanish wine even more!The wine selection was fantastic and the bonus is we have all discovered a personal new favourite wine.
    Anastasia Menardo Noskova Sipping Spain course
  • β€Ž β€Ž The presentation on G for Grenache was informative and interesting. Picking various regions where Grenache is turned into wine was particularly well done. Nika’s presentation was enriching and broadened our knowledge of wines to now include Grenache. We sipped, we learnt, we enjoyed.

  • β€Ž β€Ž Nika organizes amazing wine tastings and she has found a way to make them online now, which was great and informative! She is very good at explaining wine in a simple way but is also able to answer more complicated questions. Super friendly too πŸ™‚
