A UNIQUE wine tasting evening has raised hundreds to help survivors of domestic abuse and sexual violence move forward with their lives.

The Sofa Club, in Andover, organised ‘Call My Wine Bluff’ at Andover Guildhall on Friday, July 19, in aid of Finding Freedom from Abuse - formerly known as the Andover Crisis Centre. 

Guests had six wines to taste – two red, two white and two rose – and a panel of three individuals told them what they were drinking, but only one was telling the truth.

People were then invited to work out who was telling the truth and guess the correct wine.
