They assess the facts and put them to the test with an experiment in the Forkful Kitchen. Although it’s fair to say they won’t be taking up jobs as wine experts any time soon… Charles Cornelius, owner of Barks Wine Shop in Sheffield, also shares his thoughts about what to look for in an ideal wine glass.
