Festive Cheese and Wine Tasting

Friday, 8 December / 19:00 - 21:00

Cheese and wine have been natural allies for as long as people can remember. You can, of course, enjoy them on their own – but at this special event taking place at Gerry’s, there is the chance to experience how the particular attributes of each can add greatly to the whole taste explosion. 

Included on the night will be fresh and ‘washed rind’ cheeses as well as classic blue and aged hard cheeses. 

Both red and white wines will be on offer, along with the opportunity to find out how well-chosen breads can match the style of the different cheeses. 

The evening will enable you to explore and enhance your experience of taste and maybe meet new, like-minded people into the bargain. 

The wines, cheeses and breads are also available to buy for your wine cellar and fridge or larder.
