My best friend from school and i went on Saturday. The day was great fun, very knowledgeable and we had some fantastic wines and champagne.

I can highly recommend the Essex Wine School. I have so far attended three events - Saturday Wine Tasting with lunch (brilliant Birthday treat for husband), Rosé Wine Tasting and Spanish Wines & Tapas. They have all been great fun, interesting and pitched at just the right level; not too heavy but informative. Neil and Tim both have a great sense of humour and ensure you have a wonderful time. The venues at Chelmsford (with Neil) and Colchester (with Tim) have a lovely, relaxed atmosphere. I am looking forward to the Port and Cheese tasting in December - these events are becoming addictive! Thank you Neil for bringing this to Essex.…

Excellent evening of wine, cheese and learning a lot along the way. Good mix of incredibly knowledgable guy and small group, without being too formal. Definitely recommend and would do again
