Why they come back...
Wine tasting with Victoria is always such an informative treat and really good value for money. She presents a range of delicious wines from unexpected places, sharing the history of the region and winemaker, which always has a fascinating story. I also appreciate that she chooses smaller winemakers, with a sustainable element to their craft and gives food pairing suggestions.
Morgan George
Victoria’s passion, knowledge and personal touch make wine drinking even more enjoyable! The selection of wines is always carefully curated, offering options you would not come across yourselves. Her events are not only fun, but also really help expand your horizons beyond “I like white".
Alyson Tart
A brilliant concept– totally different, small-scale but with high-quality wines, enthusing people about wine with personality and style.
