Uncorking the Truth

20th May 2025

If you were anywhere near the Observatory on Friday you may have heard a lot of laughter, clinking glasses and the odd cork popping as SOCS (Supporters of Carrington School) hosted their first ever wine tasting quiz night: Whose Wine Is It Anyway?

Guests enjoyed six rounds of wine tasting, with each round featuring a panel of three wine "experts" who described the wine in front of them. The twist? Only one was telling the truth, and the others were bluffing with impressive confidence!

Armed with a healthy dose of suspicion, everyone had a great time trying to sniff out the lies (and the sauvignon from the chardonnay). Some teams trusted their taste buds, others trusted their instincts… and a few just guessed and hoped for the best.

There were plenty of laughs, some surprisingly convincing fibs from the panel, and lots of support for a great cause. A huge thank you to SOCS for organising such a brilliant evening - and to everyone who came along to sip, swirl, and support Carrington School.

Cheers to that!
