Wine & Beer Tastings with a Difference
Wine Tasting for Two
Want to set the mood for romance tonight?
Nothing will ease your stress more than unwinding with someone special after a week of hard work.
And your partner will feel even more special if you arrange a private wine tasting for two.
Yup. Private. For two. You read it right. We will bring the world (the world's best wines, that is) to your own home to awaken your senses. Just for the two of you.
May we suggest other foods to release your sensuality. Consider an abundance of fruits (avocado, bananas, cherries, figs, peaches, pomegranates, raspberries, strawberries, watermelon), nuts (almonds, flax seeds, pine nuts, pumpkin seeds, walnuts), foie gras, or pesto.
Complete with dim lights, lighted candles, and soft music to get things going.
No table to set. No dishes to watch. Just an evening of opulence and discovery as your evening becomes even more interesting by the knowledge that our wine experts will share with you. And you can comfortably ask all the questions you needed to know uninhibited, as you snuggle cozily with your loving partner.
What happens after we leave is up to you.
So bring sexy back into your home and brace yourself for a night of passionate encounter.
Have we stirred your desire just yet?

Chocolate and Champagne Tasting
Did you know that chocolate and champagne go well together?
Yes, it's true.
Traditionally, champagne has been paired with hors d' oeuvres or even light meals. Think succulent oysters, glazed fish, grilled chicken, poached or deviled eggs, creamy pasta or risotto, savory canapes and caviars. The list goes on.
But now it's time to break tradition. What most people don't know is that champagne is so versatile (the most versatile of wines, in fact) that, yes, you can pair champagne with chocolate as a perfect sweet end to your lovely meal.
Ever wondered how and why champagne has bubbles? (A champagne is called a bubbly for this reason.) These festive bubbles come from a second fermentation of wine after sugar has been added and the bottles are capped, thus causing the carbonation to build up. But these bubbles actually have a purpose. They scrub off your palate - clear your palate - which is why champagne complements most food. Any food you pair with it comes out more flavorful.
Such is the case with champagne and chocolates. Imagine this. Pralines and truffles from Belgium - said to be the best in the world. Paired with a French champagne - allows you to taste the chocolate in its purest form and lets it linger in your mouth.
Unsure of which chocolate goes best with what champagne? Allow us to show you how. At Wine Works, we'll take you through matching the most premium chocolates with the world's best champagnes. Learn the difference between Doux, Demi-Sec, Dry, Extra Dry, and Brut. Or maybe Blanc de Blancs, Blanc de Noirs, and Rose. (Hey, this is knowledge you can share to impress.) We will even make your get-together more interesting by demonstrating the art of chocolate making.
So, if you fancy a chocolate and champagne bar for your corporate event or if you simply want to indulge in this decadent and luxurious experience with your family and friends, remember that with Wine Works, a private chocolate and champagne tasting is within your reach. Because champagne need not be a rare treat for special occasions. With Wine Works, every day can be a day to celebrate.
Wine and Chocolate Tasting Parties
Wine And Chocolate Tasting Parties Are A Treat
Wine and chocolate tasting parties are becoming increasingly popular, either as an element of a hen party, a birthday party, a celebration or even as the main focal point of a night. It is not as if too many people need an excuse to enjoy wine or chocolate so bringing them both together can make for an excellent evening.
While the drinking of fine wine and the tasting of luxury chocolates can be a fun activity by itself, you could make the event more fun by adding additional elements to the party. You can create competitions where there are prizes up for grabs or have a dressing up theme where guest have to tie in their costume with wine or chocolate somehow. What about guessing which country a wine is from but giving a clue in a song played? Quizzes of all types can be educational and fun.
One way to make a wine and chocolate tasting event more interesting (if you need to) will be to pair up the wine and chocolate so that each combination has a theme. You could choose simple themes like they both hail from the same country or they both start with the same letter. As the event progresses, the links between the two elements could become more cryptic. Perhaps they were both first sold in the same year or they are the favourite combination of a famous celebrity. Anything which adds a little element of competition can be enough to spice up any event.
Party games can also be introduced between the tasting rounds. This can help to break the evening up and you can use this time to add palate cleansers too between the rounds. There are plenty of party games that can be played with dry crackers, including team relay races which means everyone easts a cracker. This allows your guests to have fun while properly preparing themselves for the next round of chocolate and wine.
Don't forget to have plenty of water as well to act as a palate cleanser and to ensure that no one gets too merry too quickly. Some people enjoy introducing games to these sorts of events whereas other people prefer to focus on the tasting itself. Whatever sort of event you prefer to enjoy, it will be a great way for you to have fun.
Wine and chocolate lovers combine!
Are you a wine and chocolate lover?
Do you long for a heavenly bar of chocolate after a long day in the office? We have what you need, and you could even make a party out of it and invite your friends around to share in the delights we have to offer.
Here at Wine Works we long to throw the party of the year with our wine and chocolate tasting, but that's not all we do. We even do some beer tastings with cheese samples as well. So if you have friends who don't take a fancy to a glass of wine, bring them anyway. I'm sure they would love a nice cold beer that we have in store.
When we throw a party there is nothing for our customers to do other than take yourself to one of many venues around London that we often host many of our fantastic parties. So all that stress of setting the tables, planning the lay-out of the rooms, placing all those glasses, that's a thing of the past. We take care of everything. We will even supply all the glasses, all the desired products and even some finger food if our guests get hungry.
Wine and chocolate parties
We ensure all our customers get the very best for their money. That's why we never cut corners when doing what we do.

London Wine Tasting
London wine tasting is readily available by countless firms.
How do you choose? Here is a list you must consider when hiring a company for your wine tasting event whether it is a private wine tasting or a corporate one.
Venue - Are you locked into a venue the company uses regularly? Make sure you have the choice to host your wine tasting event anywhere you would like. Ask if they offer the option to come to your place of business or home. This can really save your budget.
Food - Here again check if you are under some obligation to use the wine tasting company's approved supplier. Do you have the flexibility to have whatever kind of food you choose?
Quotations - If you are getting quotations it is incredibly important to make sure the London wine tasting quote you are receiving is like for like. You may find a great deal at an unbelievable price but what kind of value are you getting? Make sure of the quality of the wines you are receiving to convey they right tone for your event. You don't want your guests feeling like you chose the cheapest option, mediocre wines never impress. Make sure you ask:
how long the event is- how many different wines are provided
- how many bottles
- if nibbles are included
- is VAT charged or included
- how deposits are paid
- what if the event is cancelled
- what if there are less people or more than expected
Qualifications - All workers associated with your event should have a minimum WSET, (Wine & Spirit Education Trust) qualified to Diploma level and be trained by someone who has passed the Masters of Wine Examination
Experience - What sort of experience does the provider have? How long have they been in the industry? Have they just taken a course or do they have years of experience?
Flexible - Can they provide vegan or kosher wines if you have guests with certain restrictions? Can they plan your event to fit the occasion or is it a one size fits all package?
Mood - What is the person you are getting the quote from like? Are they lively and chatty? Or somber and serious? Being up in front of a group takes personality and daring. Ask to speak to the person who will lead the event on the phone, if you aren't enjoying the conversation then the chances are you may not enjoy the event.
