Our last tasting of 2015, I think it was the best tasting yet! Nineteen of us gathered at our usual spot on a rather windy winter’s night.

Gordon yet again has worked wonders, for our delight and tasting, he pulled out of the bag 9 bottles of champagne, 2 of the same label, which we had tasted before on our trip to the Newcastle Wine School in November and 7 different champagnes. I thought the first bottle was Prosecco but I had just eaten a slice of chorizo sausage, not the best food to consume before tasting a fine wine!!

The evening progressed well with lots of laughter and banter, I’m not sure how much serious wine tasting went on but it was a fun, a nice start to the Christmas Holidays.

Thanks to Gordon for leading a great group.

Thanks also to those who presented their choice of wines to the group this year.
