There is a place in woodbrook, just opposite the Hott Shoppe roti place, that does wine tasting.

I can't remember the name of the firm, but the hold wine tasting sessions often.

The fellas at More Vino don't ever hold wine tastings?
Makes sense that they would to get people interested in their stock.

Wine isn't my thing though. So I'm at no loss either way.

The place belongs to a friend and truth be told that Wednesday was the first time i have ever been-he selects wines form a region and presents them for you consideration and then you buy if you are interested. That"s alll I know I could PM you his contact info and you could talk with him.

wine not does not do that.

Falcon, the wine is here, 3rd batch ready by May, Wine tasting is great, My uncle used to grow grape plants in Trinidad, so I took on the habit here. Maybe the monks on the hill, Mt St Benedict? do they do wine? I dont know if anyone or any company grow garpes in TnT, and make wine from it for selling in the super markets, anyone? Mines is called Chateau D, a red Rose, I could do a light Rose too. Newbury? Wow I know it well.
