North-East

From Autumn 2025 we are delighted to be hosting courses in the North-East led by Greg Turner-Deeks. 

About Greg

Greg is a wine professional and educator based in Newcastle. He represents the Italian importer, Passione Vino outside London and was formerly a Wine Director and Sommelier for THE PIG and Jamie Oliver’s Fifteen Cornwall. Prior to this he has also worked as a brewer and distiller, and also ran cocktail bars. His passion lies in conveying the stories of the people and places behind each wine, choosing to work with small family producers that make responsibly made wines with authenticity. Greg’s specialist areas all spring from places that he has spent time; Italy, Spain, New Zealand and South America, as well as the rapidly developing UK wine industry. Greg holds the WSET Level 4 Diploma in Wines and places a high value on wine education, as well as one-to-one coaching and mentoring.
