The Wine Appreciation group is for people who do appreciate wine but do not necessarily know a great deal about it!

We will be a self taught group, everyone contributing and enjoying tasting and learning from each other.

We aim to meet once a month.

In Yorkshire alone there are 16 vineyards and we may be able to arrange visits and/or expert talks.

We meet in each others homes at 7.30pm on the 4th Tuesday of every month. The host provides 3 different wines of their choice and some nibbles. They also give some information regarding the origins of the wines. Members pay £5 to reimburse the host for the purchase of the wines.

The group met on 2nd March at Baron Hartley Wines in Hornsea and tasted seven wines - interspersed with delicious cheeses, bread, olives and grapes.

The somelier explained the origin and the benefits of all the wines and where and how they are produced.

A lovely evening was had by all and we all learned a little more about Italian wines.
