| | Wine Tasting EventsThese events cover the basics of wine tasting and wine appreciation. They are designed for an audience with no or limited prior knowledge of wine and aim to educate whilst also being fun and interactive. The events can be run successfully in a private or corporate setting
The event list provides examples of event formats and is intended as a guide to the type of events that could be run. The details of each event can be tailored to suit your personal requirements.
Every event is specific to each client and hence the price per head is indicative. The overall price of the event is also influenced by the number of participants. We will agree a budget with you as we understand more about your requirements. Please note that it is possible to run events for less than 10 participants, but the pricing structure has a floor limit of 10 participants, as a minimum.
All indicative prices include VAT at 17.5%.
We will work with you to understand what you want to achieve from the event and what balance you want between education, fun and practical skills (i.e. wine tasting). For most events, the focus is on fun and practical skills.
Each event is designed to last between 1½ to 2 hours, with the tasting of approximately 8 samples, but we can flex that up or down according to your requirements.
