It doesn't matter if your glass is half full or half empty - there is clearly room for more wine!

We meet monthly at members' homes. The host chooses 3 bottles of wine with a theme which could be anything (this year we had Austrian wines, Majestic Wine Course, German wines, Northern Italy wines, left overs from the Wedding!, Argentinian wines, French red wines and Australian wines with a man on the bottle). Nibbles are provided and the cost of the wine is shared. Members taste the wines and try to guess the country of origin, strength, year, type of grape and cost - all with varying degrees of success (sometimes little or none!). We learn how little we know and have usually forgotten that by the next meeting but it feels like a jolly party every month.
