oenophile Iain Smith, guests enjoyed an informative talk on
wines from the Burgundy region courtesy of Julie Simard from
the Henri de Villamont vineyard.

Road, Exeter, created an intimate setting while canapes were
provided by Jim and Lucy Fisher from Exeter Cookery School, an
exciting new venture due to open on Exeter’s historic Quayside later
this year.
