Join us for an evening of wine tasting with the brilliant Oz Clarke, as we celebrate the fully revised and updated edition of English Wine.
The modern view of English wine is of a country amazingly blessed with vast tracts of soil suitable for viticulture, much of it almost indistinguishable from the chalky slopes of Champagne and Chablis. It is also of a country taking full advantage of the vagaries of climate change to ripen Chardonnay and Pinot Noir to levels perfect for sparkling wine, and increasingly excellent still wines. English Wine is a brilliant guide to where to find the best English and Welsh wines, from fizz, whites, impressive reds and even dessert and orange wines.
‘It’s brilliant. Exactly what’s wanted. -‘ Hugh Johnson
