Tasting Notes redefines the classic wine tasting experience. Enjoy the fusion of wine and music as you’re served a selection of canapés and 5 quality wines which have been thoughtfully paired with string quartets. Whether you’re a connoisseur or a newcomer, you’ll be made to feel welcome as our wine and music experts guide you through the evening with friendly and informative spoken introductions to enhance your tasting experience.

After the tasting – and included in the price of your ticket – you can continue your evening down in the Crypt where there’s live jazz music until late.

We’re heading to Southern Europe for this Tasting Notes, landing in Italy – a country with a winemaking history stretching back over 4,000 years. Blessed with a sun-drenched Mediterranean climate, fertile soils and a rich cultural heritage, Italy remains one of the most influential and celebrated wine regions in the world.
