Event Description
This fabulous blind wine tasting wine evening is back again due to popular demand.
Do you fancy yourself as a budding wine detective? Could you tell which country the six wines come from? The last tasting we ran was with Portugese wines and not one person out of a group of 18 people got it right. Can we do better this time?!
We'll be tasting a total of 6 wines, all of which will be 'blind' (wrapped up so you won't know what they are), and here's the catch... the wines will all be from the same country, but which one?
Blind wine tasting is great fun - it means you judge the wines on the flavours and aromas which you experience and not the price or the grape variety on the label.
I am sure that this blind wine tasting evening will unearth some real surprises; wine schoolers voting for £8 bottles over £20 bottles when they don't know which is which, for example! This evening won't be about guessing the price of wines, it won't be about guessing the grape variety either; it'll be about deploying your sleuthing skills to deduce which country could be capable of producing all these wines...
This is a tough challenge, so naturally your wine school host Jonny will be on hand to offer plenty of clues, tips and hints. This will be a great evening for those of you who are keen to hone your tasting skills and anyone who wants to understand how the geography of specific countries can impact directly on the wines produced.
The tasting includes hand out sheets and nibbles.
