Sensory Secrets of Wine: Tasting with Intuition

Workshop with Eva Bruot – Innovative Approaches to Wine Tasting

📅 May 7, 2025 at 9:00 AM
📍 Wine Research Centre, Glavni trg 8, Vipava (Room P 1.2)
🗣 The workshop will be held in English



Can you imagine a wine tasting with no rules – just you, the wine, and your senses?

We invite you to a unique sensory workshop where we’ll approach wine tasting differently: focusing more on aromas, understanding the power of geographical origin, and letting intuition guide us to discover the subtlest nuances of wine.


Speaker of the sensory workshop will be Eva Bruot


Our guest Eva Bruot from the Franck Thomas School (France) will lead us through an innovative tasting method that’s already recognized in France – a great inspiration for anyone looking to enrich the wine experience in their winery or tasting room.


This workshop is ideal for winemakers, sommeliers, students of viticulture and enology, and anyone interested in deepening their sensory perception and interpretation of wine.
