We have booked a Wine Tasting event with “All About Wine”, a local wine importer based in West Wickham. Both the Chair and myself have been to previous events hosted by this company and they are truly excellent. The quiz follows a fun “Call My Bluff” style – with everyone competing in teams (tables). For each wine you are given to taste (in generous portions) you are given two descriptions and must decide whether A or B is the correct answer. Therefore, while some knowledge of wine can be helpful, it isn’t paramount and even the complete novice can make a lucky guess! However, they will also throw in a few bonus questions to give the connoisseur a chance to shine. You will be given 7 or 8 wines to taste (from my slightly hazy memory!) plus the opportunity to purchase your Christmas wine from them at discount prices (but without any sales pressure – seriously! This is not Glengarry Glen Ross!). Your £10 ticket will include all wine tasting plus a delicious selection of cheese, biscuits and breads during the break. All proceeds will go towards BTG funds.
