STAFF and residents at a care home in Basingstoke have been treated to a wine tasting "masterclass".

Residents and staff from Barchester’s Ashcombe House care home in Worting Road were treated to the masterclass hosted by Nick Parker and Lee Isaacs from Unity Wines.

Nick and Lee took Barchester residents on a tour of the world of wine.

Nick said: “It was a privilege and a pleasure to share some of our best-loved wines with the Barchester residents, it was a whistle-stop tour but hopefully we gave everyone a good flavour of some of the different styles on offer from a lovely dry Asti right through to fruity Rioja,”

“This tasting was really interesting, because it showcased so many different styles of wines.”
