Expert-led cheese and wine pairing evening a winning combination for parents and staff

23 May 2022

Miss Clare Brazier, Development Manager

Parents and staff enjoyed a relaxed and informative evening at our first Cheese and Wine Pairing event on Thursday 19 May in the Stephens Room. 

Our fantastic guest wine expert from the Kent Wine School has more than 30 years’ experience in the wine and spirits industry and previously worked as a judge at the Drinks Business Global Masters competitions. He explained how and why pairing certain food and wines can be very successful, as well as advising us which are best avoided.

We explored six very different cheese and wine combinations, including classic red, white and sweet wines from around the world, with delicious cheeses provided by one of the UK’s best cheesemongers, Cucolo Cheese & Wine in Heathfield. The evening finished with a final vote on our favourite wines, cheeses and combinations.

We all left with a greater knowledge of wine pairing, whilst looking forward to further exploration at the next Woldingham Community wine club event.
