**WINE & CHEESE GATHERING GROUP**
Leader: Michele Cornwell
The aim of the Wine and Cheese Gathering Group is fun and fellowship. It is not for any particular wine person but for all. More a tasting to expand our range with everyone’s views accepted and valued.
We try 3 wines and cheeses over about an hour and a half in a safe environment.
The Gathering takes place on the 2nd Wednesday of each Month from 3:00pm to 4:30pm.

*********************************
March 2025
Pam, having lived in France and gained considerable knowledge of French culture, which may have included a glass or two of wine, hosted the March meeting of this group with co-host, Sue. Together they provided a seamless presentation of three very different wines – a Rose labelled ‘The Arrogant Frog’, a white wine – Pipoul de Pinet and a smooth red wine -Cabernet Sauvignon – Merlot, plus cheeses to accompany them. The tasting concluded with a Noilly Prat Vermouth. Pam described the history, region and characteristics of the French wines with impeccable pronunciation. The Quiz scores set a high benchmark with three teams that tied for first place, all with a score of 16, necessitating a ‘tiebreaker’ contest. John and Frank were the winners.
