The essence of the AWA tastingsis to give wine tasters the opportunity to try wines which they would not normally try perhaps because of cost, limited availability or preconceptions!
I source wines from high street, independant and specialist suppliers to ensure the diversity of the wines which we taste.
Tastings are relaxed and informal and whilst I lead the tasting and introduce the wines, the emphasis is on group chat about the wines.
Apologies that refunds/credits/transfers can not be given for pre-paid missed sessions as wines will have arranged according to booked numbers but feel free to send someone along in your place, just let me know so that I can expect them.
If you would like to attend a tasting,please email me at carol@wineuncorkededucation.co.uk or call 07751520987
