  • Virtual Wine Circle - July 2010

    Set your calendars!

    This coming Sunday is the monthly VWC meeting, 7:30 UK time.

    We'll be discussing what people have thought of pay-as-you-go memberships, inclusion of a ginger beer class in the Ponte Open Show, and of course the Virtual Wine Circle Competition on August 14th in Pontefract, West Yorkshire.

    Do you have your bottles?!?!?

    We also have a video (sorry for the late notice) speech this month: Wine Faults. I already apologise for sometimes the bad quality, but it was all I had to work with at the last minute.

    If you think it's awful, let me know. We can discuss it at the beginning of the meeting, of if everyone is okay with what I presented, it's fine too.

    A great link / reference sheet is also listed here: http://www.vinovixenz.com/Wine101/pd...nWineFlaws.pdf

    I know I didn't cover ALL wine flaws, but the video was big enough as it is.

    The link is listed here: http://www.lockwoodrecording.net/1.wmv
    (sorry - I was post call!)

    Of course there will be a "free-for-all" discussion after the meetings' business has been discussed.

    Hope to see you all there!

      I am not sure I will be able to make it....
      But I will try to pop in
      Insecure people try to make you feel smaller.

      Confident people love to see you walk taller

                      I should be there, provided I get the rest of my bottling done tomorrow morning. I have another 21 gallons to go yet.

                        due to server outages (virgin media to blame)


                        the VWC meeting is re-scheduled for next Sunday 25th July 7.30pm UK time


                        see you there I hope
