Celebrate a little something extra this Rugby World Cup with our series of entertaining 45-minute events comparing wine producing countries before they go head-to-head on the pitch.
In this session, Anna will be comparing the wine worlds of France and Italy. Arguably the two most classic and celebrated regions of the wine world. With almost infinite possibilities of different regions and grape varieties it’s impossible to imagine trying to compare the two - but we’ll try! We’ve decided to focus on two classic pairs, ideal for a pre-game drink - putting the sparkling wines head-to-head and then two of the world’s most famous red styles.
Simply pick up the four bottles in advance, invite some friends over and have a little drink before the big game!
