Virtual Tastings
We’re now offering a range of ticketed virtual tastings. Led by our team of in-house experts, our tastings are available for you to join from the comfort of your own home.
Whether you’re looking to deepen your understanding of Bordeaux or gain insight into the innovative wines of Tuscany, you’re sure to find something to pique your interest in our curated virtual programme.
So how does it work? Simply book a place on one of our virtual courses, and we’ll arrange the delivery of everything you need – be it wines, spirits or cheeses – to be sent directly to your doorstep.
Whichever of our tastings you opt for, we think you’ll find it educational and fun – with just the right level of indulgence, too.

Description
The price above is per household and includes everything you'll need for this tasting, which we'll deliver to your doorstep ahead of this event.
Delve into Bordeaux’s unique terroir as we guide you through the region, talking about its sub-regions, history and most significant wines. This case includes examples of the region’s lesser-known styles, as well as some of the more famous names and a delicious sweet wine. Your host will help you to pin down the characteristics that typify some of the areas and communes. By comparing and contrasting the flavours and aromas in front of you, you will be sure to leave with a firmer grasp of the lie of Bordeaux’s land.
We will arrange a delivery of a selection of wines from Bordeaux, a set of glassware and a corkscrew directly to your home. In addition, we have partnered with Paxton & Whitfield, who will deliver three artisan cheeses to accompany the wines in the tasting. On the evening of the event, you’ll log in via Zoom where our expert host will take you through three of the wines. The ticket price includes full-sized bottles (75cl) of all the wines except the sweet (37.5cl) that you will be tasting, so you can share the experience with family and friends.
The virtual tasting will start at 6.30pm and last for one hour and 15 minutes. Once a ticket has been booked, we’ll email you to confirm the details of your delivery.
