Our third Science of Wine event took place this week in Aldbury, and it couldn’t have been more special.
Hosted in support of the local school, the evening brought together a wonderful mix of people from the village and beyond — sharing stories, laughter, and plenty of conversation over a glass (or two!) of wine. Having lived in Aldbury for 18 months, it felt fantastic to give something back to a community that means so much to us.
As always, Laure Soeters led the session brilliantly, taking guests on a journey through the science behind the wine from acidity to tannins. The discussions around the room were lively and full of curiosity, and it was a joy to see how easily science and storytelling can bring people together.
One guest summed it up perfectly:
“Thank you so much for a fascinating evening learning about the science of wine. It was a really inventive and engaging way to bring everyone together. I will never look at a bottle of wine in the same way again!”
That kind of feedback captures exactly what Collider Cafe is all about making science approachable, social, and inspiring.
It was also a great chance to share and get feedback on some of our Collider Cafe products, which are now available online. If you’d like to take a look, you can explore the shop here: collidercafe.com/shop
A huge thank you to everyone who joined us, supported the local school, and contributed to such a warm, engaging evening. We can’t wait to keep building these experiences where curiosity meets creativity, and science feels right at home around the table.
