Organising a special occasion or birthday, looking for a sophisticated or light-hearted Hen or Stag night activity?
Or maybe just an alternative and fun way to entertain or spend time with friends?
Wine tasting parties are a fun and increasingly popular way to celebrate, creating a relaxed atmosphere and an activity for all the guests to enjoy.
The wine tasting can also act as a perfect icebreaker as friends get to know each other - plus the wine is guaranteed to keep the party flowing!
Not sure exactly what kind of tasting you are looking for, drop us a line, and together we can create something that fits what you have in mind for your special event.
We've run hundreds of different tastings both in-person and virtually so we'll be able to use that experience to make something extra special for you.
Games
A wine tasting game is a fun way to celebrate, creating a relaxed atmosphere and it is an activity all guests can enjoy. Our popular 'Whose Wine is it Anyway?' tasting game is a proven format for groups large and small.
There are lots of carefully-picked clues and helpful tips from your wine host to allow novices as much chance of winning as seasoned wine drinkers. Our fee for this includes the wine samples to taste that we bring with us, professional wine tasting glasses and equipment.
This option is great for a staff social, birthday party, hen party, team building or anniversary celebration.
Private Wine Tasting Events in person
You will sample at least 6 different quality wines and compare them side by side and you can also include Champagne to add a touch of sparkle to the proceedings.
Looking for something a little different? As well as wine tasting, we can also arrange:
Tutored Beer Tasting of 6 traditional styles, using either high-quality local beers in varying styles or more specialist ones from further afield.
Tutored Gin Tasting with a focus on local distilleries, we compare varying styles and botanicals, as well as taking a look at the history of this fascinating drink.
We are independent wine educators who don't sell wine, beer, or spirits, so our tastings are fun and relaxed events with no pressure to buy wine at the end.

What our customers say...
Alex has done tastings at a really cool coffee shop near us called Kafe 1788. After the first one (beer) I was so impressed and pleased with the event that I have since practically sold out the subsequent tasting sessions with all my friends and now host them at my home.
We've since done gin, rum, tequila, beer again, and sparkling wine.
Every time Alex is funny, knowledgeable, interesting, and always brings along varied and interesting drinks. The portions are generous and the whole experience is always tremendously enjoyable and informative.
I will continue to book Alex for tasting sessions and bring along anyone who will come with me :)
Alex was great, full of knowledge and answering all questions (and we had a lot!) with patience, we enjoyed our time at the school and learned a lot as well.
