Innagural Geek Wine Thing

Last night was the inaugural Geek Wine Thing and it was a real success. So I want to say thank you to everyone who came, including Henry and Will from The Butlers Wine Cellar.

This was the first time I've taken responsibility for organising an event of any kind, so was a nervous, but once we got into the swing of things that feeling was washed away.

Henry talked us through the basics of Spanish and Portuguese wines. Not only does he clearly know his stuff but also talks with passion about the subject which I think everybody appreciated.

We're already hearing some great ideas for future tastings and if you've got ideas, I'd love the hear them.

The sound of cameras was pretty constant so there should be some good geek-wine-tasting images on Flickr soon.

Also, when I get time, I'll make sure all the bottles we tried are on Corkd so you can add your tasting notes if you like.

Danny - great event! I'm looking forward to the next one, you'll have no problem drawing a larger crowd if you wanted. Word will spread...
