'I was given a birthday present for a day with Chris at Cheltenham local wine school. I had an amazing day. Lots of lovely wine, cheese and crackers to nibble on, a lovely lunch and a lot of laughs. Chris is very knowledgeable about wine and he made it fun with blind tastings. I would definitely recommend going and I am looking forward to attending one of Chris's cheese and wine evenings. Thank you Chris' Louise, Cheltenham
