Hosted by Rui Santil of Liberty Wines 

Portugal has a great tradition of winemaking with a wealth of characterful (if sometimes unpronounceable) indigenous grape varieties as well as a wonderfully varied climate. 

Like its neighbour Spain, Portugal has been undergoing something of a quiet revolution over the last couple of decades. A reluctance to follow trends & plant international grapes is now paying dividends & the new breed of wines are more than able to compete on the world stage.

The unique flavours that are the hallmark of Portugal's indigenous grape varieties have become somewhat of a ‘trump card’ & we are looking forward to welcoming Rui Santil, Portuguese Estates Brand Ambassador of Liberty Wines to show a selection of his personal standouts.  

From deliciously crisp, summery whites to rich robust reds there will be a lovely variety on offer & as always, the wines will be accompanied by a selection of artisan cheeses from our deli.

Limited numbers of tables are available to book online.

Greece was once one of the foremost producers of wine in the ancient world. However, in contrast to the country’s important wine heritage, modern Greek wines have only recently reached the rest of the world.

These days, Greece offers outstanding wines made from indigenous varieties & this tasting will be a great way to expand your palate. From Assyrtiko to Malagousia, Xinomavro to Agioritiko & many in between, we may not be able to pronounce them, but we definitely enjoy drinking them! 

John will be showing five of his current favourites in a variety of colours & styles & 
again, the wines will be accompanied by a selection of artisan cheeses from our deli.

Limited numbers of tables are available to book online.
