The result of an inspired collaboration between our Group Sommelier and Wine Buyer François Belin and Head Chef Justin Kett, our exquisite wine tasting dinner offers the chance to savour wines from around the world.
Our wine tasting dinner begins at 7pm with an apéritif and canapés in the lounge, followed by the three-course dinner served at 7.30pm in one of our elegant private dining rooms, with guests seated together at the banquet table. The wine dinner is always very popular and places are limited, so early reservation is recommended.
