CLIFTON NURSERIES VALENTINE'S DAY WINE TASTING
A delicious way to celebrate Valentine’s Day is at the Clifton Nurseries Wine Tasting evening on Wednesday, 10th February, starting at 6pm until 9pm.
This sparkling event is held in conjunction with the award-winning experts at ‘The Winery’ of Clifton Road, W9 who have a nose for a sweet-smelling bouquet. The wine tastings are ideal for anyone with or without a partner who wants to get intimate with the grape. Tickets cost £25 per person (£20 for Friends of Clifton), which includes all drink and some pretty robust cheeses, bread and fruit as the perfect companion for the evening.
This year The Winery will be bringing 10 of the most alluring wines they know: gaze into the deep rich soul of Burgundy, Tuscany and Puglia reds, including a biodynamic Bourgogne Rouge Pinot Noir 2006, grown and nurtured for your pleasure according to the organic philosophy of Rudolf Steiner and the lunar calendar. What could be more romantic than a Champagne Brut Rosé NV, Forget-Chemin (Champagne/France)? A meeting with this sensual blend of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier often results in love at first sight, casting a celestial spell on your senses. The equally beautiful ROSÉ Reuilly 2008, Valéry Renaudat, from the Loire, is making an appearance this year and promises not to disappoint anyone looking for something stylish, elegant and gently fruity (no this does not constitute part of your ‘five a day’).
If you think blondes have more fun, you will be spoilt for choice by two dry Rieslings from the Mosel Valley in Germany; Riesling trocken 2008, by Gerrit Walter - a crisp, racy Riesling, with exhilarating tones of grapefruit, or the succulent Veldenzer Kirchberg Riesling trocken 2008, by Martin Conrad. Or try a Californian Chardonnay, which just bursts with sunshine and gives life a decidedly warm feeling. This wine explodes with a cavalcade of hazelnuts and spice on your tongue…generous and faintly tropical… just the sort of person you’d like to meet?
