I would like to learn a bit about wine and wine tasting and I'm a complete wine novice. Can anyone recommend anywhere in Kent/SE London to do this?

Well if your seious about it, try going to Borough market (London Bridge station) as they have a really good wine seller there, I have lots of wine buffs in my family/step family and for Christmas, if I want to get them wine I just go in and say they are such and such age, like this, don't like that, have this much to spend and they sort me out a wine- I get "thats really an impressive wine" from relatives who are normally people who call a spade a spade. I really think these people know their stuff, they do sometimes test wines- and if your serious about buying something will really help you out.
