Booking easy. The event was exceptionally good. I bought this experience for my husband and 2 friends (lots of turning 60 this year) we all enjoyed it very much. Relaxed, informative, good fun and we all felt we came away knowing a lot more about wine. We will most likely attend another event in the future. Adrian was a great host.

Adrian did a great job of keeping the day up tempo and we were treated to a large number of fine wines, with contrasting styles and characteristics. We both learned some new things and it challenged our preconceptions about particular grapes or regions. White wine paired with hard cheese is one example we will be following up. The venue was great and despite the amount of alcohol consumed the whole day flew by! Highly recommended especially if you can get Adrian with his knowledge and enthusiasm.

Had a great introduction to wine tasting at the Old World Wine workshop in the Midland Hotel Manchester on the 3rd September 2016. Adrian our host and wine expert form the day was really good and not only new his wines he also new how to really impart his knowledge. The day was fun and interesting and really opened my eyes to various aspect of wine tasting I wasn't aware of. Everyone was made welcome and put at ease and with 14 wines to try the day got better as it went on. I would recommend anyone to try out one of these workshops. Noreen - St. Helens

Attended the World of Wine session on the 30th July. The day was really informative and engaging and our host Adrian was very knowledgeable and kept the session enjoyable for all, even those of us who knew nothing at all about wine at the beginning! You will come away knowing plenty and most importantly, being able to check if a wine is corked properly without having to pretend to know what you are doing!! Would definitely recommend for anyone. Thanks Adrian! James

We had a fantastic day at the wine tasting. It was really fun and very informative. The selection of wines was excellent.We enjoy drinking wine, so it was nice to try lots of different ones to see which ones we liked and why. The Midland is a gorgeous hotel and it was nice to spend the day there. The other people at the tasting day were similar to us and had been bought the day as a gift. There was no snobbery, just normal people wanting to know more about wine. Adrian's knowledge was fantastic and we learned a lot throughout the day. We'll certainly be attending another event.
