Wine Tasting: Beaujolais Nouveau
Following our sold out tasting last year, we will again be hosting a celebratory tasting of Beajolais nouveau.
Beajolais nouveau is the world's fastest wine which is bottled 6-8 weeks after harvest. Dating back to the 1800s, the third Thursday in November once celebrated the end of harvest but now marks the release date of this juicy and fresh gamay.
We will be cracking open four bottles from wonderful suppliers as we toast to a new year of gamay. Food will be offered in a banquet style.
Tickets available from £35.

Wine Tasting: Champagne vs. Sparkling
Sparkling wine, in the form we know and love today, has bee produced since the late 1600s. From Champagne to Cape Town, Catalunya to Piedmont sparkling wine dominates celebrations all over the world. But who makes the best sparkling wine? Who has the best method and climate for making sparkling for those special occasions? Do we side with the old guard in France and Italy? Or do relative new comers like South Africa and Spain have the edge? Join us for a very special tasting on world champagne day! Light nibbles will be provided.
Tickets available from £40.

Wine Tasting: Off the Beaten Path
This wine tasting leans into wines that are a bit atypical- we'll be steering clear of wines from France, Italy and Spain but choosing to embark on a journey of tasting wines made from Lebanon, Canada, and more.

The tasting will be hosted in our cosy snug upstairs— with us moving across the road onto Audrey’s lovely terrace if weather persists.

Wine Tasting: From the Mountains
Nothing good comes easy and the same can be said for wine. Join us as we climb up to see a taste of what's at the top of the mountain. High altitude vineyards are not without their struggles, from windy conditions to a inability to machine harvest. The benefits of sunlight and cool tempartures for grape growing are what entise wine makers and punters alike. Somewhat barren volcanic soils host their own struggles but the complex nature of the soils have their own benefits too. We will be exploring the difficulties and benefits of both as we taste through steely assyrtiko from Santorinia to big bold reds of etna.
Food pairings will be matched to regions. If the weather persists the tasting will be hosted on the terrace.
Tickets available from £35.
Live Jazz
The third Saturday of every month, from 7pm, our friends in the Alfie Dean Trio join us offering an afternoon of live music to accompany your wine and cheese.
