Coes Farm invites you to discover the world of wild wines. Join wine educator Mike Knowlden (Perennial Wine) for a fascinating full-day introduction to sustainable winemaking. This immersive course explores the principles behind organic and biodynamic viticulture, natural winemaking, and the environmental impact of wine production.
What is Natural Wine?
The best winemakers will tell you that wine is made in the vineyard rather than the winery. They believe it's the job of the winemaker to guide grapes gently through to a wine, allowing them to express a sense of place. But what choices do winemakers have to make and how do these choices affect the finished wine? We explore these questions and more.
Who is it for?
This course is for anyone who would like to learn more about sustainable methods of viticulture. We recommend having a basic level of wine knowledge (WSET Level 1 or equivalent), but it'll be interesting and fun for the seasoned expert too!
Where is the course held?
We are delighted to be hosting this course at Coes Farm, nestled in the tranquil Sussex countryside. With its beautiful vineyard and natural surroundings, the farm provides a unique and inspiring setting for the course. We’ll spend time outdoors whenever possible, so please bring sensible shoes and be prepared for changeable weather.
