Peter McCombie is a lot of things: a long time friend, a Kiwi, co-designer of the Flavour Wave, and, of course, a Master of Wine.

We’re so excited to host this special event with one of the best ‘wine guys’ in the business. We will be having a range of wines and other drinks from the best wine regions around the world, all expertly paired with craft chocolate.

This tasting will be held at the beautiful Fidelio Orchestra Café in Farringdon. Perfect for a date night, catch up with a long lost cousin, a mid-week shake-out, and anything in between.
