Wine tasting at the Foody weekendOne of the activities which people showed an interest in for the foody weekend was a basic wine tasting.
As I worked in the wine trade for 10 years plus in another life and did quite a lot of these, I am more than happy to lead one, taking people through the basics of how to taste, what to look for and pointing out some of the differences between different grape varieties.
I will be using affordable wines, but a bit more interesting that your bog standard Ozzie Chardonnay or Shiraz.
There will be a small extra charge of £4 to cover the cost of the wine.
Please let me know if you are interested.

In fact you still haven't told me exactly how many are coming at all.

Any more takers? I've got a goodly number already, but would like to get the wine ordered this weekend.
