Six bottles, chosen around whatever you are curious about or whatever I am excited about that month. Two hours at a table in your house or your office or a back room somewhere. I tell you what each wine cost at the cellar door, what it costs landed in the Netherlands, and what a restaurant would charge for it. You will leave knowing why a fifteen euro bottle can be better than a forty euro bottle and how to tell which is which in a shop. No swirling instruction, no aroma wheel, no scoring. If a wine reminds you of your grandmother's cupboard, say that, and we will work out what compound is doing it. Price includes the wines, the glasses, and me. Fifty percent deposit to hold the date, the rest on the night. I travel up to forty kilometres from Amsterdam at no extra cost. Beyond that we talk. Themes people ask for: grower Champagne against cheap Prosecco, the whole Jura in six glasses, orange wine without the mythology, northern Italy under fifteen euro, and one I call the same grape six ways.
