Wine tastings make great social, informative, or fundraising events – mixing friends, family, colleagues and friends you haven’t met yet!
They can also teach you what to look for in what you drink, which foods and wines complement each other, and develop tasting and sensory skills that you never knew you had. A great way to celebrate special occasions, learn new skills in an informal environment or for an excuse to have fun with your friends.
For a private tasting event get together with a group of friends or colleagues, either choose from one of our popular themed tastings, or talk to us about your own idea and we will help make it happen. Tastings can be designed and run by our qualified sommeliers for any favourite region or idea that you have – for wines, beers and spirits. Any number of people can be catered for.
