A Wine Tasting Everyone Can Enjoy

You don’t need any prior knowledge of wines or history. This is for you if you’re curious about tasting wine and keen to enjoy yourself in good company with colleagues or friends. All you have to do is sit back and savour a story that connects to what’s in your glass at a wine tasting in Copenhagen.

Naturally, we’ll tell you about the region the wine comes from, how it’s produced, who makes it, and what characterises it. There’s also room to explore flavour profiles and how each of us experiences the wine. From there, we take off on a historical or poetic flight that isn’t found on page two of the wine encyclopaedia, while you enjoy the rest of what’s in your glass.

Try Five Classic Wines in Ninety Minutes

After a journey back through Danish history, into the world of imagination, or out across the great oceans, we land safely on our feet again, ready for the next tasting.

As images, people, and places pass by, we anchor them in memory through the flavours. A typical wine journey takes us through five wines – often different wines representing classic styles. The tasting lasts around an hour and fifteen minutes.

The wine tasting works as an after-work event for companies or private groups – or as the perfect kick-off to a birthday celebration.

It was about her immense knowledge of Copenhagen, clever perspectives, really good rapport with all of us along the way, which felt very personal in the group, her ease in deviating from the script if there were comments or something happened along the way, friendliness, humor, and much more - a true pleasure!"

“Sara was our tour guide in Copenhagen, she introduced us to the city and showed us how beautiful Copenhagen is. During the 4 hour walk we stopped at the palace and learned about Royal family, visited university, some historic churches, learned about history of Jewish community in Denmark and other sites (sorry, little Mermaid was not on our agenda). Sara took us to the hidden spots which we otherwise would miss, gave us great recommendations for our stay in the city. We absolutely enjoyed the tour and the city. We want to come back!”

Natasha, Atlanta

“Thank you for the inspiring Christmas tour, which was great for both the mind and the stomach. A truly wonderful tour that, as always when Copenhagen this Way is involved, provides a new perspective on the city – and in this case, also on Christmas. Highly recommended!”
