And she’s back on blue sky - been a bit busy but… After 30 years in the trade, I have decided to set up my own business Mimi Avery (wine services). I am going to concentrate on what I love best and that is sharing my passion for wine with consumers as a speaker and tasting host www.MimiAvery.com

Two very different events: Wed. eve. was a very proud wine supplier to the #meritorioussailoroftheyeardinner for the #princeofwalesaircraftcarrier twinned with #Bristol at the #Societyofmerchantventurers congratulations #sarayoung. Then an “off the beaten track” tasting for jnr schl parents at #QEH

Merry Christmas @nigelslater.bsky.social thank you thank you thank you…my family ask me for it every year, our tradition (along with 17 ft tree)

Oh what a night… #FeltonRoad Dinner at #AverysWineCellars with the lovely #nicolagreening serving - amongst other things - Chardonnay block 2 2018 in Jeroboam! Which made the 2015 Bannockburn seem small - all delicious and matched beautifully with food by #Littlefrench #FreddyBird

Brandy creams tasted ✔️with the help of the razor sharp palate of @mimiavery.bsky.social (who picked out calvados at ten yards)

Do we do #throwbackthursday #TBT ‘s here??? Just came across these - @thealexavery.bsky.social @channel4tv.bsky.social #coalition #spotthedifference

Love it when past staff come to visit :-) the great Sue Lawrence :-)

The joys of working from home

The calm before the storm that is COW (Averys Celebration of wine) and the 1st session in full flow. Thanks to our wonderful suppliers who manned some of the tables - the domaines, ch Cissac, domaine Mourchon, Jeff Carrel, casa silva, l’affinage fromage.

Ok - so this seems legit… working my way around the room slowly, picking up tips as I go :-) thanks @timatkinmw.bsky.social @jymbudd.bsky.social @fibeckett.bsky.social
