Roaming Sommelier

A decomplexed vision about wine

Rich, dry, fruity, aromatic, full bodied, so many words and ways to describe so many wines, a select few of which have probably become your trusted favourites, whilst stacks of others remain mere unfamiliar labels, how does one choose the right bottle, and what is a vintage anyway? Roaming Sommelier approaches the wonderful world of wine tasting differently - by discovering, sharing and having fun

Wine of the week at only £7.99 the bottle or £6.99 if you buy 6 bottles at Majestic.
Viognier 120 from Chile vintage 2015
'honouring 120 heroes' Santa Maria
It's a very nice Viognier, very aromatic with classic peach flavour, a touch of oak but well balanced.
Will be great as an aperitif or with a light salad with pear, feta and toasted pin nuts
The perfect wine to celebrate spring time

Vallebona is the leading supplier of premium quality Italian and Sardinian artisanal product in the UK.

I was amazed by the quality of the full range when I discovered Vallebona Sardian gourmet a year ago. This is why I went to visit them today, I tried few of their new products (the truffle salami is stunning) check it out at http://www.vallebona.co.uk

I am going to organise a wine and charcuterie / cheese tasting with their products very soon, let me know if you are interested to join the party.

Androuet is one of the best places in London to get great quality cheese. They supply a lot of fine dinning and Michelin star restaurants in London.

The team at Androuet are passionate about cheese and it is their priority to source and supply the finest, best quality cheese.

I'm very excited to work together with them to organize some great cheese and wine pairing event very soon.

Please contact me if you want to plan a tasting.
