There is a meeting most Wednesday evenings. First Wednesday meetings are often outdoors or in a restaurant. We have a Wine and Dine evening (an à la carte dinner in the Club restaurant combined with a wine tasting) on the third Wednesday. The cost is about £35-40. Members' meetings on the second, fourth and last Wednesdays are hosted by members of the Society: 9-10 wines are shown at a cost of about £25 for Budget (B) and £30 or more for Special (S) evenings. We may show wines from Paul Mapplebeck's stock on Special evenings.

	Wines for the Special St Julien Tasting

The Society is unusual in discussing the wines person-by-person (except Wine & Wine evenings). Joining in the discussion is, of course, optional, and we keep the sessions friendly and fun. The wines are narked by each taster on the scale of 1 (faulty) to 7 (wonderful) and the average calculated at the end of the evening from a show of hands.
New presenters are welcome, and we will help you to design an evening and source the wines. The programmes for each half year are put together about five months ahead, with the first half programme being published in October and the second half In April.
