• We are, and have been for sometime, avid fans of the wine tasting evenings that Jane has organised. They are an event not to be missed and her guest speakers - wine producers - from all over the world, impart a wonderful insight into the wines they produce.

  Jane's knowledge and advice when choosing wines is second to none and the choice is quite remarkable.

• Ever felt intimidated when walking into a wine shop and haven't a clue what to ask for. We've probably all been there if we're honest. Well, help is at hand. I can think of no better way of overcoming those fears than by attending one of Barrica Wine's foundation courses. Co-hosts Kevin and Jane really do have a winning formula that makes these events not only extremely interesting and informative, but superbly informal and friendly. What really did it for me was the coming together of like-minded people in such a relaxed atmosphere where I never once felt out of place. It has boosted my confidence no end. An absolute must for both wannabee wine enthusiasts, or for those who just want a better appreciation of the intriguing world of wine.

  Foundation Course.

• After attending the Barrica Wine Foundation courses, I realised there was so much more to wine than I had ever imagined. What next, I heard myself saying. No way was I going to leave it at that. Armed with this newly acquired passion, I again turned to Barrica Wines who introduced me to the concept of 'Country Days', the idea being to experience the different regions and countries of the world. What a revelation ! It all started in Italy (well, the wines did anyway ! ! !) where we were introduced to a fantastic range of grape varieties, several of which I had no idea existed, let alone tasted. Some absolutely stunning wines, many of which now taking pride of place in my cellar (thats a pseudonym for ' my garage' by the way). Since Italy, we have travelled afar to Argentina and Portugal to name but a few. A journey that has already provided some truly memorable moments. Simply amazing.
