Corporate Events

We also run professionally organised wine events tailored to meet the demands of business and private clients.

Whether you are looking for a bespoke IN-PERSON or VIRTUAL wine tasting event - we can cater to any and all formats!

We have run many successful corporate events for companies, both large and small, and our packages can be tailored to meet a wide variety of client requirements and to suit most budgets. Companies have used us for diverse events, such as:

• Client Entertainment
• Staff Team Reward/Entertainment
• Business Seminars/Conferences (usually prior to dinner!)

Wine tasting events are a fun and increasingly popular way to foster team-building or entertain clients, creating a relaxed atmosphere and an activity for all the guests to enjoy. The wine tasting can also act as an icebreaker as clients & colleagues get to know each other - plus the wine is guaranteed to keep the evening flowing!

We can come to you or we can arrange a private room for your group to eat in privacy afterwards either in a local restaurant or hotel. You will feel truly pampered as you experience a fun wine tasting followed by a delicious meal.

Our 'Whose Wine is it Anyway?' game is a great way to learn more about wine. It's a proven format involving a fun quiz with lots of carefully-picked clues and helpful tips from your wine host to allow novices as much chance of winning as seasoned wine drinkers!

FANCY A VIRTUAL WINE TASTING FOR YOUR CO-WORKERS OR CLIENTS?

No problem! Whatever you’re looking for we’re pretty sure we have an option for you!

Red wine; white wine; sparkling wine; a specific country; a pairing with some food you’re all cooking or a lovely mix… all you need to do is email us with a little bit of info about what you’re looking for and our events manager will get in contact to help you find the perfect online lockdown party!

We are able to arrange for attendees of our online tastings and events to receive cases of full bottles of wine or bespoke tasting kits with 50ml or 75ml samples of wines. We can even deliver a Cheese & Wine experience in this format.

“Thanks very much for the evening, feedback has been very positive and was clearly enjoyed by everyone. You were also mentioned individually as an excellent presenter which I hope also makes it worthwhile from your point of view. We will certainly remember you for any future events we may have and hopefully our guests will also think of you should they wish to do something similar. Many thanks - a resounding success." Phil Roberts, Corporate Team, Zurich Insurance.

“Thanks for last night we all had a fantastic time. I know everyone really enjoyed it. The next day when we took everyone to lunch they were all testing their new found skills with the wine !” Toyota July 2013

We will sample at least 6 different quality wines and compare them side by side and you can also include Champagne as an option. We always include a rapid introductory session on how to taste wine – explained in a no-nonsense practical way - and we can introduce our aroma phial kits, a box of wine-related aromas that are a uniquely inventive test of your sensory skills in a way that provides great entertainment, fun, and an element of competition.

You can choose from a number of our most popular options including:

• Classic Wine Tasting
• Champagne/Sparkling Wine Tasting
• Cheese & Wine Pairing
• Fine/Rare Wine Tasting

All of these Tastings can also be run as Wine Quizzes - your wine host will present a series of wines to deduce the identity of – this provides a focus for the guests and ample opportunity to collaborate and interact. For each wine the guests will receive helpful and objective coaching from the wine host enabling them to have a good chance at guessing the wine.

Our wine tastings are entertaining and good fun, pitched at a level that ensures all the guests learn something new about wine and, most importantly, have a great time doing so.

The venue can be selected from our list, or the event can be organised at the clients premises/offices. The event can take many formats, from fun and informal with quiz/team element, to a tutored tasting with a wide variety of wines. All equipment, glasses, wine, notes etc are supplied. We have organised & hosted wine-tasting events for Ward Hadaway, Price Waterhouse Coopers, Eversheds, Benchmark Communications, BT, and many others.

Our format for the evening can be tailor-made but normally includes the following -

• Hire/cleaning of professional ISO tasting glasses
• Chilling equipment for optimal serving of white wines
• Approx 6 different high-quality wines
• Professional tasting notes /quiz sheets on each wine
• Digital projection equipment with DVDs/Maps/Slides
• A fun quiz/team format tutored tasting
• Nez du Vin Aroma - sets of wine-related scents (fun!)

They are a great value way of entertaining clients & staff starting from around £20 per head depending on numbers, format & choice of wines.
