Wine Tastings
Have you thought about booking a wine tasting with us. We host over 100 wine tastings every year for our shop and business customers. Whether you want to come to a relaxed fun wine tasting, learn a bit more about wine or even build closer ties with your clients and team an event can be built for you.
We are happy to tailor a tasting to suit your individual requirements. As a guide tastings can be arranged Tuesday – Friday. Arrive at 6pm for a glass of fizz on arrival followed by five seasonal or topical wines. We’ll put on a range of small canapés to compliment the wine selection and have your wrapped up by 8pm.
Below are a few ideas and examples:
Make Me An Expert.
This is an evening of wine discovery. We taste and discuss 3 classic wine varieties looking at their history, their countries of origin and discussing the classic food pairings. We also cover other popular questions such as cork v screwcap, why decant, what glassware. Arrive a novice, leave an expert. 60 minutes. £10 per person. (subject to minimum spend)
Old World vs. New World
An evening showing 6 wines from different areas of the viniferious world. Bubbles on arrival then followed by 2 white and 3 red wines. Bread with dipping oils, artisan crisps and olives will also be served alongside the wines. This is a VERY popular evening.
90 minutes – £15 per person Minimum 10 people.
Cheesy Moments.
Why is cheese and wine still such an enduring combination? Do all cheeses even suit wine? Is Port and Stilton really such a good match? The answers to all these questions and more cheese related conundrums will be revealed. 6 Wines are presented starting with something bubbly, followed by 2 white and 3 red wines. Wines on the evening will be relevant to the time of the year we are in.
2 hours. £20 per person. Minimum 10 people.
In the Flavour Pit.
The ultimate hedonists evening. Here we roll out some of the most intense and full-flavoured wines in the wine world and combine them with classic charcuterie, tapas and cheeses. Unashamedly ‘in your face’ this is journey to the boundaries of full-flavour. For the indulgent natured.
