Each session we taste a different wine, selected in advance by the member who is informing and sharing research and insights into the wine. Aspects of wine tasting - appropriate glassware, temperature, label information, food pairing - are considered. Personal views as to the quality, characteristics and preferences are shared. A safe, informative and enjoyable evening shared online. We occasionally meet face-to-face and possible visits are discussed. SEE BELOW FOR PLANNED
