Sample of wines from External Wine Society Event - Friday 9 May Quarry House Canteen 17:30
Irene
will be presenting a selection of wines from the Wine Society external event.
There were 3 themes at the external event
- Wines for spring drinking,
- Off the beaten track
- Fine wines from the Southern Hemisphere
The
initial plan was to showcase wines from Off the Beaten track, but as some of
these were expensive and an acquired taste, it was felt better to do a
selection of all 3 themes.
We
will be tasting 2 whites and 4 reds from places like Austria, Australia,
France, New Zealand and the Czech region of Moravia. So, we will be testing
some new different styles of wines as well as a few familiar ones.
So
that we have an idea on numbers, and I can provide a better estimate of the
cost of the event, can you let me know by close of play on 2 May, whether you
are likely to attend.
Overall price will depend on final numbers, but it is likely to be in the region of £11.00 for HASSRA members and £18.00 for non-members. As it is the start of the year, we will also be collecting annual subs of £10.00 from those that have not attended an event this year.
