Wine tastings designed to engage and amuse. Suitable for corporate socials, client entertaining, team-building and beyond. Some of favourite our tried and tested wine nights are detailed below.
'Would I Lie to You?'
Great for smaller groups (up to 30). Over a series of differently themed rounds, you will test your wine sense and your common sense. Blindfolds at the ready! Best when played in small teams, you'll work together to decipher the wines being shown through a series of clues (or perhaps red herrings...) Ever popular, always revelatory, the smartest person in the room may not be the one you expect...
'The World of Wine' Championship
Teams of players must blind taste and identify a series of wines presented over several rounds. Showcasing only world-class wine estates, this event combines luxury and playtime in the most riveting way. Curated clues are given throughout; either ‘wine’ clues, or random facts (mentions in the press, or a fact about the wines place of origin, for instance). A hedonistic and fabulous event that showcases top-tier wines in an entertaining and engaging format. Content and clues tailored to suit the level of the group.
The Judgement of Agincourt
Combining 'The Judgement of Paris' and The Battle of Agincourt, this tasting is the modern-day equivalent of the legendary Old World vs New World battle, as first played out in 1976 by Stephen Spurrier. Now pitting the English against the French in a showdown of Champagne-esque wines, but can you tell the difference? Who does it better? And should we believe the hype about English sparkling or is it all 'Emperors New Clothes'... ? A wonderful way to dive into the English Wine scene alongside enjoying some of the best bubbles on the planet!
