The Wimborne-Valognes Twinning Association enjoyed their regular Christmas wine tasting evening at Merley Community Centre for the first time, writes Graham Richards.
After a sparkling wine reception, guests were introduced to wines from a variety of countries, presented by their president David Emes, who accompanied the evening with a light-hearted quiz on the wines tasted.
A continental supper was provided, and the evening was rounded off by a ‘Secret Santa’ raffle.
This event marked the end of a very successful year for the association, including the restoration of the exchange visit in June after its enforced break, and the committee thanked all the members for their support and look forward to their continued support in 2023.
