For those who are new to our Evening Tastings, allow us to explain the principle:

The Evening Tasting idea came about because people were looking for more wine knowledge without the need to attend a classroom. They also wanted to spend an evening in the company of like-minded people sharing good food and wine.

The format is simple - the evening kicks off at 7.30p.m. prompt when you are given a glass of wine on arrival. We then taste and talk through six wines before supper. Over the summer months, this will consist of some fine cheeses, pate and bread, finishing with coffee.

Taxis need to be booked for 10.15 p.m.

The cost per head for the evening is £28.00, all of which goes towards the cost of the food and wine. We do not issue tickets. Cancellations must be paid for in full.

The next dates are as follows:
