Desert Island Wines
​
Imagine being stranded on a Desert Island - what wines would you take with you if you could? Local wine raconteur Alistair Gibson is often asked what are his favourite wines, not perhaps the best wine he has ever tasted but wines that he could happily drink if stranded on that ‘fictitious’ desert island for a long time. So paired with a four course gourmet menu deigned by Gary Pearce and his team this is an opportunity to see what wines he would take with him and perhaps along the way help you decide as well?
​
​
7.15 for 7.30pm
£85 per person includes a 4-course dinner,
an aperitif and canapés, and a glass of wine with each course,
with coffee and petit fours

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.
