The Alchemy of Wine

After a series of sold out events Masterchef 2017 Semi-finalist Jamie Patterson and his partner Thea Gardner are back!

Jamie is a qualified wine professional with 8 years experience and is an expert in food and wine matching.

Their dinners are all about a passion for food and wine - specifically how they go together.

We've had the most fascinating time over the years discovering wines that have ended up stamped in our memories. This Sunday Lunch will showcase some of our absolute favourite wines ever. We'll raid the cellar, get out our best glassware and serve up some classic food pairings alongside.

There will be 7 courses, all named after the epic wines that have had a lasting effect on us, such as...
'The Bordeaux That Changed Things'
'The Four Year Search For That Gruner'
'The Coronation Of Strawberry Cheesecake'

We provide a glass of wine with each course, and we put the bottles on the table afterwards - we always open a bottle per head at the very least, and while it's hard to put a price on bottles from the cellar, you can be sure these are all sensational, life changing wines.

The atmosphere at our dinners and lunches is relaxed and most importantly fun. We don't take wine too seriously - we love it, but we're not snooty about it.
