Next tasting - Friday 14th June

Jun 2, 2024

In June we welcome back Italian specialist Ben Robson from Bat & Bottle of Oakham. The wines will cover a wide range of styles from aromatic white to substantial red, and will include a couple of excellent sweet wines too. This will be a very exciting tasting.


Ben has been a great supporter of the Grand Union, and his tastings are always popular and engaging. He offers wines that you are unlikely to see elsewhere as he has close personal connections in northern Italy.

 

I do hope you will be able to join us. To register your attendance, please pay as normal by Friday June 7th. As always, guests are welcome by prior agreement.

Note that Members are required to confirm attendance at the next tasting and paying the tasting fee in advance. Unfortunately, it is not possible for members or guests to simply turn up on the night owing to space limitations.
