About this event
Ever stood in front of a wall of wine and thought, “I have absolutely no idea which one to pick” ? Or sat at a dinner where everyone suddenly started talking about acidity, tannins and terroir, and wondered if you were supposed to know what any of that meant? Wine Without The Waffle is here to sort that out. Join us for a relaxed, fun evening tasting a selection of great wines and discovering what actually makes them different and, more importantly, how to work out which ones you’ll enjoy. We'll cut through the jargon and forget the wine snobbery. You'll learn a few simple tricks for tasting wine, understand the things that really matter when choosing a bottle, and start to recognise the styles you naturally gravitate towards. No previous wine knowledge required. No intimidating terminology. No pretending to smell seventeen different types of fruit in your glass. Just good wine, useful knowledge and plenty of chances to taste.
