In General...
We hold regular wine tastings for customers during the year. Of particular interest to private customers are our tutored tastings held at Wyle Cop when visiting producers from all over the world come to talk about their wines.

Our Spring Tastings are usually held in March and are supported by many overseas suppliers who come over to present their wines.

Bottles are often open at each of our four branches for customers to try. If you have any questions about them - just ask!
