Wine Tasting Event at Jam Jar

Jam Jar Wine & Pinball Lounge is hosting a blind wine tasting on Saturday 5 December, led by their resident sommelier, Dina. It's an afternoon session that runs from 2:00 to 4:30, with doors open from 1:30 if you want to get settled before things kick off.

The whole thing is set up as a relaxed introduction to blind tasting. Six mystery wines are poured and tasted side by side, so you're comparing them as you go rather than taking them one by one. Nibbles are included, and the atmosphere is kept friendly and informal, which is a good way to approach it if you've never done a blind tasting before. You get to test your own skills as you work through the glasses, and the whole session lasts two and a half hours.

It's Dina, the venue's resident sommelier, who leads the afternoon, so there's someone on hand to talk you through what you're tasting. The room itself, Jam Jar, doubles as a wine and pinball lounge on Victoria Road, so it's a familiar spot in Scarborough if you've been in before. The tasting takes place on Saturday 5 December, from 2:00 to 4:30, with doors open from 1:30. Tickets are £29.95.
