Maggie’s and Scotmid invite you to join us for an evening of wine tasting and discovery at our Charity Wine Tasting Event, in aid of Maggie’s Centres.
Come along to enjoy a warm, welcoming atmosphere in the beautiful surroundings of Maggie’s Highlands and discover a handpicked selection of Fairtrade and speciality wines. We’ll also have a variety of delicious snacks to pair with each wine, making it the perfect setting for an informal, enjoyable evening.
• Learn the Basics of Wine Tasting: We’ll guide you through the simple but essential steps of tasting wine, from how to look, smell, and taste it to understanding what makes each wine unique.
• Explore Wine Pairings: We’ll share tips on how different food flavours (like sweet, umami, or rich dishes) interact with various wine styles, helping you get the most out of every sip.
• Wine Storage and Serving Tips: Get practical advice on how to store, serve, and enjoy different wines, so you can enjoy them at their very best.
Whether you’re new to wine or looking to learn more, this relaxed and enjoyable tasting experience is for everyone. We look forward to welcoming you!
