Covid changed the way our tastings run. We tried Zoom but all it really did was to keep members of the group in touch! As soon as we were able we started meeting (in a Covid safe way of course!) Here are pics of two of our socially distanced sessions:

Wine Tasting 2 has been running since November 2013. We meet monthly at Members' homes.

Each member takes a turn in hosting an evening.  We have had a variety of themes for the evenings such as countries, regions, grape varieties, usually adopting a "blind" tasting format where we try to identify grape/country, region, etc. A tasting sheet is available but not compulsory.  Finally the host does "The Big Reveal", and we tuck into a cheese platter with the wine remainders, accompanied by hilarity. We have a budget of about £60 for wine per tasting and the host also provides the cheese and other snacks to complement the wine served. 

The evenings are relaxed and always interesting.  We have occasionally hosted tastings presented by an external professional and sometimes attend external tastings and events together.

Membership of this group has had to be restricted as it is difficult to seat many people in our homes. We currently have eight members.
