Bespoke virtual events
Let us help you arrange a bespoke tasting for clients, family or friends to be enjoyed in the comfort of your own homes.
If you’re planning a lockdown-friendly group event, then why not try one of our virtual wine tastings? Available for five or more individuals or households, these virtual events – run via Zoom – are an entertaining way to bring a little bit of St James’s (and our cellars) to you.
We’ll deliver wines, glassware and a corkscrew to all of your guests; on the evening, one of our expert hosts will guide you through the wines.
How it works
We’ll plan the event with you: either choosing a theme or creating a bespoke tasting for you.
We deliver six full bottles, glassware and a corkscrew to every guest (or household) ahead of the event – and cheese too, if you like.
At the appointed hour, you’ll all log on from your respective homes, and one of our team will guide you through the wines in a relaxed tasting.
Example events
France’s Finest
Explore three of France’s most famous regions – Burgundy, Bordeaux and the Rhône – via three very serious wines. You’ll start with a Meursault Les Chevalières, move onto Châteauneuf-du-Pape, and finish with a mature Claret from Château Haut-Bailly.

New World Gems
Discover six iconic wines from the New World. We'll start with a Moutere Albariño from New Zealand, then it's onto California for a taste of Riesling and Chardonnay. We'll then move north to Oregon for a Pinot Noir, head down to Argentina for a taste of Malbec, before ending with a Penfolds Shiraz from South Australia.

What our customers think
“The wine tasting was brilliant; very informative and I think pitched perfectly to the audience. I am really pleased you could also talk about the cheese too! We have had some great feedback… saying how wonderful it was to go on video, put a human touch to their conversations and engage in something not work-related.”
“A very interesting collection of wines, such that a number of serial wine collectors amongst your audience were surprised by something new… Everyone learnt something and, importantly, enjoyed the evening.”
“Thanks so much! This was really a great success. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves.”
“Just wanted to say a big thank you for hosting our virtual wine tasting last night. I really enjoyed it and know everyone else did too.”
