Oh the joys of spring - or the effect of a good sparkling wine https://t.co/tRyKua6T5C

[Helen Savage @HelenSavage55]

@Eslingtonvilla @HelenSavage55 We have a mouth-watering selection of wines to look forward to. can't wait!

[Helen Savage @HelenSavage55]

@TheWineSociety I look forward to it. Sainte Eulalie has gone from strength to strength in the last few years ...

[Helen Savage @HelenSavage55]

@TheWineSociety But the slight jamminess is a hit with that slow cooked lamb too

[Helen Savage @HelenSavage55]

@TheWineSociety Picked ceps 90 mins ago in Slaley Forest (as you do), DMZ Chard super with them ... garlicky, with spuds in goose fat.

[Helen Savage @HelenSavage55]

Is Indaba Mosiac #TWStaste really 74% Cab Sav? But its jammy, strawberry fruit packs a punch. Slow roast lamb tonight. No complaints

[Helen Savage @HelenSavage55]

DMZ Chard 2015 #TWStaste is really rather good: focused white peach and quite a creamy texture. Firm rather than lush. I like it.

@Eslingtonvilla It was great fun as ever. Roll on the next one!

[Helen Savage @HelenSavage55]

Horrid picture of hail damage in Chablis today: everything stripped.

[Helen Savage @HelenSavage55]

@Eslingtonvilla So do I - with more amazing wines (Spain and Portugal) and great food.

[Helen Savage @HelenSavage55]

@Eslingtonvilla So am I! I have some super Aussie wines all lined up and ready.

[Helen Savage @HelenSavage55]

@AnneLiddon @guardian Great story! Yet another reason why I must go to Tuscany.

[Helen Savage @HelenSavage55]

@wineandwords Hi Heather! Sorry to have missed it - so glad it went well.

[Helen Savage @HelenSavage55]

And the Riesling Corte Ignacio is perfect with cheese @TWStaste

[Helen Savage @HelenSavage55]

Didn't think De Puebla Pais would have the structure to cope with venison. it does! @TWStaste

[Helen Savage @HelenSavage55]

@TWStaste Riesling perfect with spicy aubergine. Acidity is always key

[The Wine Society @TheWineSociety]

Who’s with us this evening? Can you give us a virtual wave and let us know where you are? #TWStaste Pics always welcome

[Helen Savage @HelenSavage55]

Corte Ignacio Riesling perfect with Ottolenghi spicy aubergine #thewinesociety
