There will be 8 superior wines from Quaff to discover with nibbles provided to clear the palette. Naturally the quiz winners will receive a handsome prize in addition to enhancing their wine buff credentials. Everyone will also have the chance to participate in a raffle. As this is a quiz and not a ‘call my bluff’ quiz, you can confidently expect fewer wine fibs and more wine facts.
It’s £15 a head or £100 for a table of 8 – and tickets are selling fast.
To book, call Bob on 871 or email bob.pamrowland@btinternet.com
