Welcome To Pershore Wine Society

admin — Mon, 08 Nov 2010 11:26:18 +0000

Pershore Wine Society meets every month to both celebrate and share our mutual love of wine. We have been running since 2001 and look forward to welcoming many more guests and members to our group.

Membership is not necessary – if you wish to come along for any of our evenings just click here to email us and let us know.

The Programme for our current year is available here

We have a minibus that runs from Evesham to the College for each meeting. We do have some spaces available on this. If you would like details please use the Contact Form and we will get in touch with details.

We’re 10 Years Old!

The programme for the next six months is now on the site and can be found here – New Programme. This marks the beginning of our tenth year and there are a number of changes to the usual format that we have had for so long.

For a numberof reasons, which we are all aware of, we are moving to a new home and from September 28th 2011 our meetings will be held at The Angel Inn, High Street, Pershore, WF10 1AF, you can find directions here – Map There is ample parking and it will be a much more relaxed atmosphere, without the rush at the end of the evening. As part of this we are reverting to our original start time of 7.30 pm making it less of a rush for everyone.

In addition Chris is organising a series of Connoisseurs Evenings, the first to be held on Weds 11 January 2012, you can find the details of that here – Connoisseurs Evening These are to be run alongside the normal Society Meetings and offer a new and exciting dimension to the Society’s programme.

The minibus will run as usual from the Evesham area, pick up times being a few minutes later to allow for the new start time.

Membership is due this month and is £25 per head.

Our first meeting is New Zealand Wines presented by Tracy Taylor from Waitrose – and there might just be a bit of a Birthday Party too!

A splendid evening was enjoyed by everyone aboard The Spirit of Freedom. The weather was kind, the waters calm (no wine spillage!) and the evening was enjoyed by everyone.
