Wine tasting events are some of the most fun you can have with friends. Also, planning these parties is not too difficult, as you will have a sommelier to help guide you through all of the wines. Many of these events will come with some small dishes to accompany the tasting as well. These events are best with small groups, so to make the most of the night, we recommend sending invitations to those you are closest with and who love wine .
Wine tasting venues are best done downtown. Consider areas such as Soho or The City of London for your wine tasting event, because of the incredible restaurants in this part of town. This way, you can also start your elegant evening with some incredible cuisines and wines and be right in the middle of the city or even catch a show after your event. If you are looking for a venue that is a little farther away from the middle of the city, then consider areas like Wandsworth for some excellent views of the River Thames, to add an unforgettable ambience to your event.
