" May the four SSS be with you " (with apologies to Star Wars)
Although originally from London, I have lived in Northamptonshire for 50 years. My first 30 years were in Rushden and the last 20 in Northampton (St. Matthews Parade).
I am a retired medical practitioner with, apart from family, three " passions ". Naturally Wine is one of them, but also there is Music and Rugby (Come on You Saints).
I have been involved in Wine Education for about 30 years, initially as a student, but more latterly as an instructor. I have even passed some exams. My normal practice is to have a theme for each session. This enables me to not only introduce the six wines for tasting, but to give information about the theme. Audience participation is essential in having a good time! Glassware, etc., is all provided.
All participants will receive printed information about the wines which, over time should build into a reference pack for the future.
Swirl - Sniff - Slurp - Spit (or Swallow)
The tasting fee is currently £6.00 / session.
