A Christmas Extravaganza rounds off our year at Richmond

by | Nov 30, 2023 | Richmond Wine Society

A year of great tastings came to a close with our annual Christmas Extravaganza.

English Sparkling, top Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc, some seriously good whites from Austria and Burgundy, Agiorgitiko from Nemea in Greece, Barolo Riserva and the superb 2003 Vintage Quinta do Portal were our lineup across the three nights.

As usual the Britannia added to the festive spirit with a Christmas dinner that we enjoyed with some special bin end quaffing wines, and as the tasting year ended, the festive season kicked off.

For details of the wines, please visit the Wines we have tasted page.

“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!”

“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.”

“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.”

“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.”
