All Events Teddington Wine Society
Teddington Wine Society - South Africa @ St Mary's Parish Hall
South Africa continues to be one of the most exciting wine growing countries in the world.
Talented winemakers are creating wines of superb quality, and amazing value, from grape varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Semillon, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.  Perhaps some of the most exciting are grown in long established regions where old vineyards of Chenin Blanc and Semillon, and of course Pinotage, are producing grapes of great quality making wines of concentration and complexity.
In addition to famous names such as Stellenbosch, Paarl, Franschoek and Constantia we will also be tasting wines from the cooler coastal region of Breede River and the northerly region of Swartland.
Tim Syrad, who has 25 years experience of running wine tastings, runs Richmond and Teddington Wine Societies, which meet monthly.  Tim is a fervent advocate that wine is to be enjoyed without snobbery. Whether you are a complete novice or an experienced taster, there will be plenty to learn and enjoy.

“Throughout the 17 years I have attended Tim’s wine tasting events, he has continued to deliver his extensive knowledge of wine and wine-making with great charm, and lots of humour, making the evenings not only informative, but also great fun. In the course of an average year, the tastings cover a kaleidoscope of different wine themes – interesting and entertaining for all, novices and experts alike. And the wines taste pretty good too!”

Roger Heron – Richmond

“We have been going to Teddington Wine Society events for a number of years. Tim runs the evenings with bonhomie and humour and wears his considerable knowledge lightly. The evenings are great fun, the wines are always a little bit different and help to expand knowledge and tasting horizons.”

Fred Squire – Teddington

“I have attended the Richmond Wine society for over ten years and always enjoyed Tim’s self-effacing style and gentle humour. His knowledge is globally eclectic and presented in a clear, interesting and always stimulating way. Every guest I have taken there has enjoyed the evening immensely. Tim also offers a wide range of wines to buy and my red cellar has provided great pleasure to my own dinner guests.”

Stephanie Campbell, Richmond

“I’ve been enjoying Tim’s tastings for over 20 years – he is a great teacher, raconteur and wine expert. He is seriously passionate about his wine, but there is nothing serious about his tastings, which are always informal and relaxed. A lovely way to spend an evening and enjoy some fantastic wines.”
