Tutored Wine tasting
Coloured Liquids and Aromas – A wine tasting with a difference!
We will be running a tutored wine tasting on the evening of Tuesday 2nd July in the Sheffield Hallam University City View Presentation Suite and Restaurant, City Campus, 12th Foor, Owen Building, S1 2LX. Head to the main Owen Building entrance and you will be directed to the venue by one of our lovely student volunteers
6.30pm Welcome prosecco
7.00-8.30pm Tutored wine tasting
The tutored tasting will be conducted by Dr John Dunning (DipWSET; FWS; SWS) and is a great opportunity to try 5 wines in a supportive and fun environment. The emphasis is on enjoyment.
The wines will be paired with delicious cheese and biscuits from local chese purveyor Cheese & Friends
No knowledge or experience of wine is required to participate. If you wish to participate but not actually consume wine, this is also fine as ‘tasting’ can be conducted by using other senses.
Non alcoholic, gluten free and vegan options will be available.
We really hope that you will be able to attend!
