Fareham Wine Cellar Portfolio Tasting October 22nd
2008
|
Dear
,
We have now finalised details for our Portfolio Tasting which
is Wednesday 22nd October 2008 at Lysses Hotel, High Street,
Fareham.
It will be
an excellent opportunity to try various wines, maybe some that you
would not normally consider, and to have a "refresher course" on
some of those you do know. Each exhibitor will be more than happy
to talk you through their wines or answer any questions you might
have.
Tickets are
available, in advance, from The Fareham Wine Cellar in person or on
01329 822733. The cost is £10.00 per person.
In addition to the tasting, the chef at Lysses Hotel has created a
special three course dinner menu for attendees of the tasting at
the bargain price of £17.95 per person. I have included the menu
details as well. If you have any questions reference the dinner
please contact reception at Lysses Hotel, telephone number 01329
822622.
