Sheffield Sommeliers

Meet every last Monday of the month to taste wines from all over the world and then we share our thoughts with this fantastic group of people.

Taylor's Port wine tasting is an unforgettable experience, particularly in such a special place such as Quinta de Vargellas.

Wonderful #winetasting, my first #Alicante Bouschet, red fleshed and inky black in the glass.

[Sheffield Sommeliers @SommeliersSheff]

Lovely sangiovese made traditionally in Amphora. High tech for its day, terracotta for oxygen transmission through the wall, oil to seal the top, shaped to promote natural flow and circulation during fermentation.

Our last wine from @corneyandbarrow on this evenings #winetasting.
Love a pinotage, great example.

[Rhebokskloof Estate @rhebokskloof]

Save 15% on the Rhebokskloof #Pinotage 2020 this May!

The wine has an elegant texture with soft lush tannins that seamlessly blends into the wonderfully dense explosion of fruit on the mid-palate.

Wow! What changes we are seeing in our world. Thanks @ChrisHill75 for this great article!

@JoostenbergWine https://t.co/3dn5LRANeu everyday is a learning day, amazing that this vinyard can farm "dry" without irrigation! Fantastic

[Sheffield Sommeliers @SommeliersSheff]

@JoostenbergWine
Concrete, like oak, is a porous material so the wine can get small doses of oxygen to evolve and age. This exposure to minimal levels of oxygen helps the wine age gradually and improve mouthfeel, without overpowering the fruit.

We loved this at our Port tasting a few months ago!

Taylor's 30 Year Old Tawny is such a beautiful port wine to enjoy in Autumn. What is your go-to pairing with the 30 Year Old Tawny?

O Taylor's 30 Anos é um belíssimo vinho do Porto para desfrutar no outono. Qual a sua harmonização habitual com o Taylor's 30 anos?
