A Tasting With a Difference
Yes, that’s right – wine under £5 per bottle, AND wine that’s pretty good too!
The criteria for this event is that the majority of the wines tonight will usually be on sale at around £8-10 per bottle but are greatly reduced on special offer and will be around the £5 mark. Consequently they will represent excellent value at far less than their usual selling price.
The week before the event, the organiser will scour supermarkets, wine merchants and other suppliers on-line for 9 or 10 red and white wines that meet these criteria. The idea is that if you like any of the wines, they will still be available and on offer for you to buy directly after the event.
Because these are going to be wines you’d drink with food, it would seem eminently sensible to drink them at this tasting with food! In a complete reversal of our usual format the organiser has therefore come up with a new and novel concept for this event.
