Sugrue South Downs

wine maker dinner

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

​​​​​​​There is no question that the biggest wine story in the last decade has been the success of English wine and in particular English Sparkling Wine. So we are delighted to welcome England’s most sought-after and well-respected winemaker Dermot Sugrue of Sugrue South Downs to host a Winemaker's Dinner with us this November. Sugrue’s evocatively named ‘The Trouble With Dreams’ was recently named as England’s highest-rated sparkling wine, while the 2009 vintage of the same wine was awarded ‘Best in Show’ at this year's Decanter World Wine Awards. The rest of the range, which includes perhaps England’s finest still Chardonnay, is equally impressive. This is a unique opportunity to taste with Dermot and listen to the stories behind these amazing wines.

This should be a very special evening indeed, so come and join Dermot and his wife Ana and taste a range of wines from this unique winery, matched with a 4-course menu prepared by Chef Gary Pearce and his team. The evening will no doubt sell out, so please book early to avoid disappointment.

Chateau Musar - wine dinner

Chateau Musar was Founded in 1930 in the Bekaa Valley by Gaston Hochar, who was inspired by Lebanon’s 6,000 year history of winemaking and his own travels to Bordeaux. Gaston’s eldest son Serge became winemaker in 1959 and having spent 18 years perfecting the blend for Chateau Musar’s Red, he was selected as Decanter Magazine’s first ‘Man of the year’ in 1984. Now run by the 3rd generation of the family, the wineries reputation continues to grow and today Chateau Musar is regarded as one of most iconic wineries in the world. 

 

We are delighted to be joined by Marek Wilimowski from Chateau Musar for what will be a very special evening. Marek will guide us through a range of Chateau Musar’s wine paired with a 4 course menu devised by Chef Gary Pearce and his team. This is a wonderful opportunity to taste some amazing wines and hear the story behind this remarkable producer.
