The Drink Talking

Amazing wine tasting online!! I cannot recommend highly enough!! Such a fun evening - just as fun over zoom as her face-to-face tastings!! Always educational, engaging and hugely entertaining, Sophia always makes everyone feel at ease - whether you’re a wine pro or a total novice! She’s so knowledgeable but makes all this info so accessible. We’ll definitely be keen to join another tasting! This has been my favourite zoom activity to date!!

Sophia's passion for wine comes through in her fantastic wine tastings. Her presentation is clear and enthusiastic, and she shares her wide knowledge of wine in such an immediate and engaging manner. I highly recommend her for any corporate tastings in the Leeds and Harrogate area or for any get-togethers.

Absolutely fantastic. We hired Ms. Luckett to do a tasting for our company as part of our 10 year anniversary and it was a smash. Her enthusiasm, spirit and knowledge all blended together to create a great atmosphere that had us all laughing and learning. I would highly recommend this for anyone looking to entertain a crowd and celebrate in style. Prices are extremely affordable and the experience cannot be beat! Thank you again Sophia, it was a pleasure to have you and we will definitely be looking to do this again for our holiday do.

Great experience - highly recommended! Whether you're a real wino or just like drinking alcohol and eating cheese, Sophia caters for everyone. Genuine passion and enthusiasm for the industry, the evening was the perfect blend of information and fun. There isn't a better way to spend a cold Thursday night in November. Ideal for couples or a group of mates.

I attended the WSET L2 course earlier this year, all I can say is absolutely brilliant I passed with Merit! Pace excellent, content superb, good mix of wine knowledge, educational and tasting. Tasted 30 wines from various regions, learnt how to view the colour of the wine, smell, taste and understand tasting notes and how to recognise these and more importantly describe them. Youll learn about regions, grape varieties, how wine is made and stored.Sophia the tutor, helped me to understand how the taste of food can complement or change the flavour of the wine your drinking.A really comprehensive course mixed with fun activities to help you remember facts and information. Would I recomend 100%, the confidence this course gave me has enabled me to go on and pursue a career in wine.

What a treat! - I cannot praise this evening highly enough. Great wine, cheese, entertainment, humour and so much to take away in learning – what’s not to love.It proved to be the perfect Birthday present for my Spanish obsessed husband, providing a wonderful antidote to lockdown, when the world is denying us the chance to have much needed get togethers and celebrations with friends.Our first wine tasting event, we were unsure what to expect but were bowled over as Sophia created a warm, special intimacy, conducting her event with unique style, humour and aplomb. The evening was educational and entertaining in equal proportions, and as a complete novice, I already feel able to confidently order three bottles of delicious wine and cheese pairings for future dinner parties and gatherings.Needless-to-say, Drink Talking wine tastings have been added to my wish list with heavy hints about future events - particularly around my birthday! I can certainly envisage these evenings being a regular event and am delighted to have discovered them.

Sophia's wine tastings whether in person or online are always a special treat. She certainly knows her stuff and communicates it in a very accessible way, managing to combine entertainment and education perfectly. Sophia's passion for her subject shines through and the joy she gets from sharing good wine with others is extremely engaging. Don't miss out!

Being Sophia's sister and also working along side her in the wine industry has been a pleasure. Not only is she incredibly (and weirdly) wine knowledgeable, she's the most passionate person I know.We have conducted tastings together and she manages to captivate a crowd of any size and keep everyone laughing and learning (that's a tough duo!).She is the perfect combination between fun and professional and would be my number one choice (not even because I'm related!!) day in and day out for any wine gathering, function or event!

Sophia's knowledge of the wines of the world is extremely comprehensive. I attended a tasting that she hosted in the UK about the wines of New York, and as a native Californian I was extremely impressed with her knowledge of US wine producing regions outside of the famous Napa Valley. For anything from more casual bachelorette parties (a.k.a. hen dos) to more formal tastings, I would highly recommend Sophia for her knowledge and flair.
