We are pleased to announce that we've been collaborating with the creative culinary team at nearby restaurant, Harrison's.

On the 30th of May, we'll be bringing our creations to you in a Food & Wine Pairing Event, held at Harrison's.

The event will feature 8 of our fabulous boutique wines, paired with 8 different tasting portions of Harrison's modern and exciting cuisine.

Several of the dishes have been designed to pair uniquely with specific wines from The Wine Tasting Shop, whilst other dishes are Harrison's top recommended dishes, and we've chosen the wine to compliment them.

New in the shop this week!

Three fresh Sancerre wines by Paul Prieur & Fils.

20 hectares of Pinot Noir(5 ha) and Sauvignon Blanc(15 ha), from which winemaker, Didier Prieur, makes an elegant mineral Sancerre Blanc, a fresh dry Rosé of 100% Pinot Noir, and a Rouge with super fine tannin and refreshing cherry fruit - perfect lightly chilled for a Spring picnic!

Soils are mostly limestone, known as "terres blanches", and vines average 35 years old.

Sustainable vineyard practices, and wines of balance, verve, and freshness!

Just a quick post as we are, like Santa's elves, ensconced in the hustle and bustle of Christmas preparations! We bet you feel the same.

Many of you have been popping round the shop for nice bottles of wine as last minute gifts, and with our special range Christmas wines, it's easy to pick the right gift at the right price.

Not to mention, the cases of Christmas dinner-matching wines that have marching out the door like tin soldiers! We're always here to help you choose the perfect wine to match your meal, and Christmas is no exception.
