Noel’s Wine Tasting Evening

What a brilliant night at Noel’s Wine Tasting Evening!

A huge thank you to Noel for guiding us through the wines with expert knowledge, questionable banter and just the right amount of encouragement to “try one more.”

It was a really fun evening, the glasses were definitely well used, and most importantly we raised money for Gladstone Village Hall.

Thanks to everyone who came along, supported the event, helped organise things, poured, cleared, laughed, tasted and pretended they could detect “notes of blackberry, oak and late summer hedgerow.”

A great village night — and proof that fundraising can be both sophisticated and slightly wobbly. 🍷😄
