A Grape Night In
Looking for a fun new way to fundraise with friends?
Why not host a wine tasting night?
A Grape Night In event at your place is all about having an affordable night in enjoying wine with your friends or workmates in the comfort of your own space.
We will tailor the details to your specific needs, whether it’s in your home, workplace or funky venue.
Our wine tasting is run by Centre Euro Wines, they provide a wide range of white and red wines to trial, along with lovely bubbles and a range of exquisite liquors.
All you have to do is book the day and time of your event and we will handle the rest. Your guests will be entertained by our wine guru, who won’t use wine speak to baffle you, you’ll find the experience fun and educational.
If you have friends who don’t drink, we will bring a few non-alcoholic options along for them to try to make sure everyone can get involved and enjoy the fun.
