Last year I bought my Valentine a Turkish delight accompanied by petrol station bought flowers and a flimsy handmade card. Suffice to say, things didn’t work out and this year, its time to up the stakes (Maybe a dairy milk would show I really care?)
Perhaps you are planning to demonstrate your Heston-esque cookery skills in the kitchen or dazzle (or should I say ‘Razzle’) her by your Ron Jeremy-esque skills in the bedroom? Either way, its only proper that we make an effort to let the one we love, know we really do care, and if you don’t know your Pinot’s from your Poirot’s then TV’s Wine guru Olly Smith is hosting a ‘Meet the Expert’ session at Vinopolis in Borough Market this February. (Olly will even throw in a signed copy of his latest book, “eat and drink”).
On Saturday 11th February, prepare to be indulged by Olly with a VIP tasting of six wines followed by a typically lively Q&A session with the Wine maestro himself. Olly is on hand to help you pair up your loving (or lustfully) designed menu or simply offer some first class tips and recommendations on your grape needs for 2012.
Vinopolis, London’sWine and spirit tasting destination showcases over 120 wines from all over the world. A tour of the historic arches of the venue also takes in a Champagne bar, Bombay Sapphire Blue Room and a Chivas Whisky room. Vinopolis have several packages available for the event and we recommend you take a gander at their website (www.vinopolis.co.uk) where you can purchase your tickets.
