A taste of the evening

What’s the plan?

Celebrate the unexpected side of English wine at this relaxed guided tasting in Hackney.

Ashley from Wines with Ashley will introduce two still and two sparkling wines from across England and Wales, pairing classic styles with more unusual grapes, regions and winemaking approaches. Your ticket includes four 75ml tasting pours.

No previous wine knowledge is needed. The tasting begins at 7pm, with guests welcome from 6pm for a cocktail or glass of wine beforehand. A communal table is available for solo visitors, while groups will be seated together.
