Wine Tasting & Cruise

About

The French arguably make the best sparkling wine in the world – Champagne, but their counterparts in the New World are catching up fast with their own versions … England included!

This tasting will taste 1 Champagne against its equivalent in Italy, Spain, South Africa, Brazil and our very own, local, Hampshire-based sparkling wine, and decide for ourselves once and for all which one deserves to be our favourite! This is an opportunity to taste high quality Champagne and compare it to some of the best sparkling wines coming from great locations around the World! 

'My name is Cecile Bergart, and as a Champagne Expert (born amongst the vineyards of the Champagne Region, France), I will be presenting you with the very best bubbles the World has to offer and will run this tasting in the most entertaining and educational way!

'This is my favourite tasting by far, so come and join me for a truly decadent evening, which I will start off by sabring a bottle of Champagne for your eyes only! I was trained by the Confrerie des Sabreurs and will be delighted to show off my skills, opening up a bottle of champagne with a sword, just like Napoleon used to do!

'I am a published Champagne and Wine Educator, a guest champagne expert for Champagne World Magazine and for Channel 4 'SuperScrimpers', a regular guest speaker on BBC Radio Solent, as well as being an approved staff educator for Marks and Spencer. I am also a Ruinart Champagne Ambassador in the UK.

This tasting includes: 6 SPARKLING WINES (including 1 Champagne, 1 Prosecco, 1 Cava, 1 from South Africa, 1 from Brazil (yes, Brazil !!!) and 1 from Hampshire itself).
