From Blue Suede Shoes to Bluegrass: Our Road Trip through the USA

Whether you picture yourself nursing a rye whisky in Heartbreak Hotel, swirling a glass of silky red wine amongst the vines of Napa, or discovering a cult urban winery in Brooklyn, there is no denying the free-spirited allure of a road trip through the United States of America.

Taking inspiration from Jack Kerouac's On The Road, the iconic wine movie Sideways and the great American songbook, we'll cross state lines to bring you the best of California's rich bounty – creamy Chardonnay and brash Zinfandel – along with ethereal Pinot Noir from Oregon, or a Cabernet Sauvignon fit for the rockstars of Washington State. This is a definitive drive through the key wine-making regions of this diverse country, so stick some Elvis or Bruce Springsteen on the radio and feel the wind in your hair as we hit the road on Route 66. An American Dream!

Our shop tastings start at 7.30pm and run for approximately one-and-a-half to two hours. We will taste 6-8 wines on a theme, and bread, cheese and charcuterie is provided to match with the wines. Due to the communal nature of the tasting, we are unable to cater for dietary requirements.
