This tasting has now sold out.  To be added to the waiting list, please contact Tom on tbrady@oxfordwine.co.uk

Presented by: Emily Silva and Bradley Horne

Together with our friends at Cecchi, we are running a free virtual tasting and quiz, for your chance to win a trip to Tuscany!  

Participants will receive four numbered miniature bottles of Cecchi wines, whose identity is top secret. At the event, hosted via Zoom, OWC’s Emily Silva and co-host Bradley Horne (aka @winetimelondon) will guide you through an overview of Tuscan wine, from the history and legends, right up to modern-day developments in Chianti and Chianti Classico. We’ll also discover the coastal vineyards in Maremma, and our hosts will explain more about Tuscany’s key grape varieties, Sangiovese, Vermentino and others.  

Then we go straight into the quiz, where 12 multiple choice questions will test the knowledge and recall of all the guests. Guests give their answers via a smartphone app called Kahoot!, and scores are updated throughout the quiz. The final questions are based on the blind wines which have been delivered, for added challenge! The quiz is mostly about paying attention during the session, though, so you don’t need to be a Master of Wine to take part! 

The overall winner will be awarded an amazing weekend for two to visit the vineyards of Cecchi in Tuscany, including flights, accommodation and car hire. 

For any questions, contact Emily Silva on emily@oxfordwine.com
