Wine Into Water October 2011

The first wine into water event took place on Friday night and not only did we raise £200 for WaterAid but we learnt a lot about wine and had a brilliant time into the bargain- see the pics below!

Sam and Karen from Majestic answered many questions about the French and Chilean wines, and there was also smoked salmon and cheese on hand to match to various wines.

If you attended on the event and would like to try some of these wines again, they're available in Majestic Cardiff Bay and they included:

Whites: Chateau de Sancerre 2009, Chablis (Boudin), Chardonnay "Llanuras de Camarico"
Reds: Villa Maria Pinot Noir, Chateau Boutisse, Peter Lehman Shiraz.

We also had a vote on the favourite wine of the evening, and the Chateau Boutisse was the narrow winner (I voted for the Shiraz myself!)

The Cardiff WaterAid supporters group would like to thank all those who attended for their support of WaterAid, and in particlaur Dean from St Saviour's church (a perfect venue) and Sam and Karen for their patience in dealing with all the questions!

The event sold out a few days prior to Friday, but we will be arranging another one so watch this space...
