SEASONS WINE TASTING EVENING

Having never been to a wine tasting evening Hannah and I were a little pensive about what to expect from our evening at Seasons, thankfully we were greeted with a warm friendly atmosphere and plenty of experienced wine drinkers to help us along the way.

The evening began with the history of Gerard Bertrand Wines and details of the wines we would be tasting, starting with a rosé, moving onto white & finishing the evening with red, we also had some insight into how the wine is produced and the differing methods ranging from Organic to Bio-diverse, from hand picked and aged in oak barrels, to picked by machine and produced in vats as high as houses.

It was very enlightening and as we sat sipping on each glass enjoying the quiet conversation  I really began to appreciate what goes into these wines and I'm happy to say by the end of the evening I was beginning to distinguish flavours and judge if the wine had been oak aged.

I would highly recommend any of the wines we tasted that evening but my personal favourite was the Vieille Capitelle Sauvignon Blanc and knowing that Seasons stock it means I can get a bottle whenever I fancy!
