SUMMARY:Cambridge String Quartet x Grape Britannia : Beethoven x Wine
DESCRIPTION:Beethoven String Quartet No. 5 in A Major\, Op. 18 No. 5 – four wines matched to the movements \nWe are collaborating with The Cambridge String Quartet to present a wonderful evening combining music and wine. Saturday 8 May 2021\, 7.30pm – 9.00pm. \nMusic was not always about sound for Ludwig van Beethoven. As his ears began to fail him\, he also used the senses of sight and touch when he was composing. The Cambridge String Quartet & Grape Britannia invite you to experience Beethoven’s music through another sense: taste! On Saturday 8th May we will be putting on a virtual event combining wine and music. We have paired four of our finest English wines with Beethoven’s String Quartet in A major\, Op. 18. No. 5\, and will lead listeners through a virtual tasting in dialogue with Beethoven expert\, Professor Nicholas Marston. The Cambridge String Quartet will offer a fresh take on this fizzing\, theatrical quartet\, performing each movement alongside a different wine and offering listeners an enriching experience for all the senses! \nWine can be purchased either as samples (3 x 100ml + 200ml can) or full bottles (3 x 750ml + 200ml can). \nThe Cambridge String Quartet have played in over 20 countries in 4 continents. They have recorded and broadcast at Abbey Road and Carnegie Hall.

SUMMARY:Introduction to wine tasting
DESCRIPTION:Do you like wine but feel that it can sometimes seem a bit mysterious and that descriptions on the label aren’t always easy to understand? \nThis introduction to wine tasting session will answer many of your questions by guiding you through some of the key terminology and giving you a way of systematically tasting a wine – so that you are more confident in what it is about a particular wine that you like and have the language to describe it\, meaning you can purchase with more confidence. \nThis evening will absolutely not be pretentious and aims to make wine tasting fun and accessible. We’ll taste 6 delicious and diverse wines across the spectrum of white\, rosé and red. \nPlease note that crackers and bread will be provided as “palate cleansers” to help you reset your taste-buds between wines\, but no other food is included.

SUMMARY:The Belgian Brewer tasting evening - December
DESCRIPTION:Grape Britannia is thrilled to welcome back Nik Lemmens from Bishop’s Stortford-based The Belgian Brewer after his well-received tasting evening in September! The event itself is free\, but please book a ticket to reserve your space. \nYou may be wondering why a wine merchants specialising in English wine is having a Belgian beer tasting event! Well\, The Belgian Brewer\, Nik Lemmens\, may originally hail from Belgium\, but he now resides in Bishop’s Stortford\, where he has a small brewery in which he makes his small-batch beers according to secret family recipes. They are some of the smoothest\, most technically accomplished Belgian-style beers we have ever tasted\, so we had to bring them into our select range. \nNik will move from table to table\, giving each group a fascinating talk through his range of beers and how he makes them (just don’t ask him for the secret recipes!)\, as you sample them. The beers are available for purchase throughout the evening.
