EVENTS
Wine Tastings & Pop Ups
Wine Tastings
Our events usually take place on Fridays and, unless otherwise stated, start at 7pm. They centre around France and are a great way to learn more about wine in a relaxed and informal setting. All events are strictly limited in number. Ticket release dates are noted next to each event, and will be released at 10am on the release date through our newsletter. Any remaining tickets will go on general sale at 1pm.
Please note: ticket sales are final and are not refundable or transferable to other events.
Love Orange Wine? Hate Orange Wine? Have no idea where to start with Orange wine?
Whichever camp you fall into, this is the tasting for you!
It’s back! War of the Rosés is a celebration of all shades of pink and an opportunity to rediscover rosé.
If you’re bored of drinking the same old rosés, this is the tasting for you.
It’s time for another wine and cheese night! This time, we’re focusing on the most misunderstood category of them all – sheep milk cheeses!
We’ll be tasting six cheeses, each one paired to a wine.
We’re taking big name wines and turning them on their head.
Think places like Provence, Sancerre & Châteauneuf du Pape – but not as you know them.
We’re teaming up with Dotty in the Kitchen for another edition of Bitesize Pairings.
This time the menu focuses on France’s most popular cheese, Comté. Expect five canapé size cheesy creations, each paired to a wine.
Everyone’s favourite tasting is back, and this time we’re pitting French sparkling wines against their counterparts from the rest of the world.
Will Champagne come out on top? Can Crémant outshine it’s competitors? There’s only one way to find out!
We’re letting you in on France’s best kept wine secrets – the greatest wines you’ve never heard of, from Cru vineyards that fly under the radar. That means they’re not only delicious, but great value too.

Fantastic French wine and cheese specialists with friendly and knowledgeable staff. Half price cheese boards on Wednesday made it even sweeter. Highly recommend! 🍷🧀
