I don't want to get something just for the sake of it, but I had a flash of inspiration just now. We could both do a days course (spend some time together too!) and get my mum to look after DS for a day. We couldn't manage an evening course because Dh is in from work at v erratic times.
So has anyone done a good relaxed course in London - please let me know. DH has done the Vinopolis ones so anywhere else will do.
Many thanks

Ages ago (and it really was years) my Dad and I went to a really fantastic one at the White Horse in Fulham - whites in the morning, lunch, then reds in the afternoon.'Twas fab. You could call them and see if it still happens...

I bought dh a one day course from London Wine Academy. They used to run them at a pub very close to us but from a quick look at their website looks like most of them are now at their offices near Old Street. A few are at the Peasant pub which I know has good food. I didn't go but he enjoyed it and it sounded like good fun.

Thanks everyone - I had looked at the Wine academy website and it looked fun. And I'll try the pub in Fulham too, and give vinopolis a look again.

The 'how to drink wine' session at Vinopolis was good, but the tour itself was very dull.
