Rediscovering Red Wines

Aromas of violets and mushrooms to bigger, richer offerings filled with dark berries, spices and oak, the world of red wine is as diverse as the soil and climate from whence it came. Our love affair with reds will be presented in all its glory looking at famous regions and their varieties and what makes a great red wine different to one you wouldn’t even use for cooking. Please arrive 15 minutes early for a prompt start. RMB380
The Champagne & Chocolates Event will be held at the ultra cool, Laris Restaurant, along a marble bar top, with the others at one of my favourite food & wine bars, Otto, and the events as you know combine the best things about the things I love best, wine, food, great atmosphere, interesting guests and learning about wine through its language and experiences.
Please make sure you register asap as they book out, and also consider these events as an exclusive show for your company or VIP clients. They can be developed with any theme in mind or I can work in a wine angle to an existing event that adds colour, glamour and entertainment, while passing along key aspects about wine and its amazing culture.
If you have already received these event details, I appologise for any convenience.
Looking forward to seeing you at the events.
Regards,
Michael Lee
