Wine tasting evening of wintery red classics paired with cheese and bread, run by the Notts Derby Local Wine School.
Warming Winter Reds is a red wine tasting evening at Broadway on Friday 6 November, run by the Notts Derby Local Wine School. It's a two-hour session that starts at 7:00pm, so you're in and out in time for a late dinner or a quiet night in. The whole evening is built around wintery red classics: black fruit, a bit of spice, and rich, toasty flavours, all paired with cheese and bread.
Behind it is the Notts Derby Local Wine School, part of the Local Wine School Network, which describes itself as the world's fastest-growing network of independent wine schools. They run fun, accessible wine courses at all levels under the motto 'wine tasting for everyone', alongside professional courses and qualifications for anyone looking to start or develop a wine career. The school is rated five stars on TripAdvisor and has been featured in The Daily Telegraph and Time Out Magazine.
It's a straightforward setup: you spend two hours working through a selection of winter reds, with the cheese and bread there to hold it all together. If you've never done a tasting before, it's a low-stakes way to get a feel for what makes a red 'wintery'—the darker fruit, the spice, and those toasty notes that suit a cold night. The school's whole thing is keeping it accessible, so you don't need to know your tannins from your tannins to get something out of it.
