Scary Halloween Wine miniTASTING & PartyMap and Directions

Wine Tasting doesn’t have to be scary.  At our annual tasting, we’ll take the scare out of some unusual wines. It’s hosted in our miniTASTING format, which is a  promise not to bore you to death!!!

Scary Halloween Wine miniTASTING & Party

Details: The tasting will start promptly at 7 pm, so arrive for 6:45 to check in.

The tasting will last 40 minutes and will include 3 wines and some food matching.

Not staying for the Halloween party? You will only be able to stay until 9pm. However, a group will be moving on to another pub/grab a bite to eat after the tasting. Please make a comment in your rsvp.  Ticket to the tasting does not include entry to the Party, and entry to the party must be booked in advance as they will sell out early.

Staying for the Halloween Party?   I’ll meet people at 8:30 & 9:30 at the downstairs bar, on the right side as you face it.  I will wait for 5 minutes.

Attending the tasting prior to the Party is a great way to get to know people who like wine, food and travel. I hope this helps enhance your experience during the night!

Don’t delay, and buy your tickets in advance, as this will sell out!

Address:

Prince Of Wales Pub
150-151 Drury Lane
London WC2B 5TD

We’ll be upstairs.

What’s a miniTASTING?

Get a quick fix and learn a thing or two about wine.

Join us to brush up on your wine knowledge as well as share ideas, stories and tastes with other wine enthusiasts.  This event is perfect for the Tastour first-timers, but also attracts many of our seasoned tasters! If you wish to learn more and have fun doing it, then you won’t be disappointed!

Around 50 wine lovers gather at this event – it’s bigger and more informal than a guided Tastour Tasting. We put a lot of effort into  creating a relaxed, friendly  environment that is perfect for mingling.

Each month is a different learning theme, giving you tips and tricks to help you learn  all about your favourite wines so that you may enjoy them even more, shop smarter, save money, and even share these tips with others.
