Cheese and Wine
We will be holding a cheese and wine on the 21st of September at 6.30 pm £15. Please book with the restaurant.
The night will introduce the wines we directly import ourselves. These come from small producers in Italy, Austria & Romania. In conjunction with our tasting we will have a guest speaker Dr Pamela Clayton from Glasgow University who will speak about the state of the European wine market and the issues of marketing small European wine producers.
We will launch our newly bottled house red by Alessandro from the Sandonna farm in Umbria and bring back our favorite white, Gruner Veltliner from Mr Schmid of Pillichsdorf in Austria.

Our new arrivals
will be from Romanian. Romania is the fifth largest wine producer in Europe today but hardly known outside its borders as 95% of its production is drunk domestically. Its wine industry is going through a revolution with some fantastic wines beginning to see the light across it borders. We will bring you native grape varieties such as Feteasca Neagra & Regala and the ancient Cramposie from Prince Stirbey.
