Last night was our August meeting and held at the Community Centre
Our speaker last night was Nick Joannou from The Wine Glass an independent retailer in Halifax
Nicks presentation was informative and funny and kept all members gripped. He blew the lid off certain supermarket wines and what we were actually buying.
Nick also treated us to three good wines to taste. A white wine called Peach from Stella bosh. A dry wine with a discreet sweetness and fruit taste.
This was followed by a lovey red called Coco. With certainly chocolate taste derived naturally from the grapes. The third wine was from Italy and a gorgeous Valpolicella which can be served at room temperature and chilled. A great selection of summer wines.
We also welcomed two new perspective members Pat and Rosemary. Who have recently moved into the area
The raffle was hosted by Anne and Keith Maude.
Next months meeting we move back to our winter home of Mytholmroyd Cricket Club
