London Wine Week: 14-20th May, 2018. Digital passes free to the trade
Bought to you by DrinkUp.London, the organisers of London Cocktail Week and London Beer Week, London Wine Week (LWW) is a seven day celebration of all things grape, and an excuse to use the words Week and London too many times in a sentence.
As with Drinkup’s other festivals, LWW features a central hub that will host a variety of pop-up and scheduled events, along with the opportunity to buy discounted wine flights at a host of participating bars around the city.
Bartenders interested in learning about wine will find a pleasing amount of opportunities to do so whilst drinking it during LWW. Highlights include ‘Pearls of the Loire: Oyster Masterclass’ which will teach you how to pair said bivalves with Loire Valley wines, and the ‘Regal Rogue Terrace’ which is all about Aperitis and budgie smugglers. We’d probably give the Royal Wedding screening a miss however.
A full list of scheduled events and participating bars to be found on the DrinkUp.London website.
Members of the trade can apply for a code that will provide them with a free digital pass. The pass will get you into the LWW hub and allow you to by signature wine flights for £5 at participating venues. To apply for a code, email trade@drinkup.london with proof of employment before Friday 11th May.
