Well, after a bit of pre-amble, we will.<\/p>\n<p>Many of you have stood by our tasting table, sampling some of our delicious wines, ruminating on what fun it would be if Wimbledon Park had a nice bar to have a drink at. Not that place down the road where the Invisible Man and his mates drink, not a cab journey away to the village, just somewhere local where one could enjoy a glass of wine. Well, we had that self-same chat with a new customer who\u2019s recently moved to the area and, being far more dynamic than these two fossils, has done something about it.<\/p>\n<p>Tonight sees Wimbledon Park\u2019s very first neighbourhood pop up bar with Saucer &amp; Cup Lates.<\/p>\n<p>From 7.30pm at the Saucer &amp; Cup, just across the road from us, Daniela will be hosting with locally sourced craft beer, wine and gin. There will be small plates of food too and we understand that 10% of profits will go to Foodcycle. So, no excuses folks, pop in and have a glass or two since it\u2019d be a shame to let an evening like this slip through our fingers (and the more you drink the less we have to take back!)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ros\u00e9 Tasting \u2013 SOLD OUT<\/strong><br \/>\nIf you\u2019ve meaning to book but haven\u2019t\u2026well you were warned!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Wine School \u2013 Autumn Term<\/strong><br \/>\nAs we mentioned last week we are now taking bookings for our six week course that starts on Wednesday 16th September.

With this in mind we will open a bottle of Domaine Clos des Eglantiers Rivaner 2014 &#8211; \u00a312.89 which continues to be our best-selling white wine from Luxembourg; mooching around, keeping itself to itself, we have a delicious red from Australia \u2013 Innocent Bystander Yarra Valley Pinot Noir 2013 &#8211; \u00a315.99. Both fab, both light and summery, both open \u2013 come and join!<\/p>\n<p><strong>If you can\u2019t make it in this weekend but miss seeing Alex\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\n\u2026 then all is not lost! He\u2019ll be propping up a table at the annual Wimbledon Park Primary School Summer Fair this Sunday, between 12pm and 3pm. He\u2019ll be bound to have something fun to taste whilst watching his daughter get high on candyfloss and trying to keep his son away from the beer stall.
