Most customers, private or corporate, contact me with possible themes and either a total sum in mind, or an amount per person; I would then email a proposal for the event. The costs on the right are a guide only. Another rough guide would be to say that a private event often works out at an approximate cost of wine plus around £12 per head. For 8 to 16 people I would tend to charge a minimum of £225 in total.

Typically a tasting will be arranged for 10 to 16 people - which is the sensible number to share a single bottle. This may not seem generous - but it should seem sufficient once 8 wines have been sampled! Bigger turn-outs will require two or more bottles of each wine.

A corporate event involving quizzes or games may cost considerably extra due to extra expenses, preparation or logistical burden.

Events outside the South East may incur a charge to cover travel expenses. Detailed handouts, audio visual presentations (Powerpoint) and tasting glass hire are all available and can be included in a quote.
