To celebrate the launch of Wine Education Week, WSET is hosting a food and wine pairing event in Hong Kong. This fun and interactive evening will begin with a tasting of 25+ award-winning wines from the Decanter Asia Wine Awards. This will be followed by a workshop at 6:45pm that demonstrates the synergies between the key components in food and wine, and how they interact with each other.

Ever wondered why a fruity white wine with high acidity goes well with Thai food? How a full-bodied red wine with high tannins interacts with salty dishes? What kind of food would complement a sweet wine like Sauternes? In this food and wine pairing masterclass, you will learn answers to all these questions and more. Following this tasting of 3 premium wines, you will be able to apply your knowledge of key food and wine interactions to any menu and wine list. You will also receive a complimentary set of 3 wine tasting glasses!

Part of WSET's 50th Anniversary celebrations, Wine Education Week begins on Monday 9th September with food and wine pairing masterclasses in 24 countries across the world starting at 6pm local time. Our headquarters in London will be the site of a marquee event: a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for wine lovers to help break a Guinness World Record for the largest ever recorded sommelierie lesson!
