Tour de France (The Wine Tasting!): Islington

Tasting of 3 whites and 3 reds from regions close to the Tour de France route (like Pont du Gard, Mâcon, Alsace).

Hosted by our very own Humble wine experts.Cremant Reception with fresh almonds A selection of fresh olives, organic cheeses and meats, served on our charcuterie boards.(Optional Dress code: Yellow Jersey!)Wednesday, 24 July, wine tasting begins at 7PM (sparkling receptions begins at 6:30PM)Summer is approaching, and so is the world’s very favourite cycling tournament – the one and only, Tour de France! just in time to kick it all off, we thought it be appropriate to celebrate the occasion with our own Humble tasting tour around France! Not only is it the time of year to delve into our French bottle collections, we thought we select a few from regions along the official route! (And because we are absolute wine geeks, the wines will be tasted in the order of the route, to boot!)To get to know what makes these regions challenging for cycling, we’d recommend watching it on the TV... (even though we like to think of ourselves of quite knowledgable amateur cyclists) but what makes the places great for winemaking, is our forte! Summery wines for everybody, and a bunch of fun facts about each of their individual styles will be on offer. The perfect time to spruce up your wine knowledge in time for afternoons in the sun (or indoors watching the cycling, of course!). Get your yellow jersey at the ready…Now we’d recommend going and snapping up a ticket whilst they’re still available! https://shop.humblegrape.co.uk/collections/wine-tasting-events/products/tour-de-france-tasting-islington
