Corporate Wine Tasting Events in Person

Looking for an informal and relaxed way to help with team building or entertain clients? We offer bespoke events that can cater to companies of all sizes and budgets. 

We can come to your office or arrange a suitable venue elsewhere. The tastings can be run as games or competitions, or classic wine or food and wine matching events. The choice is yours!

Get in touch via our form at the bottom of this page for more information and we will be delighted to help.

Wine tasting is a good icebreaker as people get to know each other, plus the wine is guaranteed to keep the event flowing!

We've hosted many corporate wine tastings all Shropshire and the surrounding area and pride ourselves in providing fun, unstuffy events suitable for anyone looking to have a great time!

We always keep the emphasis on having fun - if you learn a bit more about wine in the process, then that's an added bonus! You will definitely acquire new wine- tasting skills and perhaps try something you never thought that you would like at the same time!

We will sample at least 6 different quality wines comparing them side by side. We always include an intro session on how to taste wine – explained in a down-to-earth way, no pretentiousness here!

You can choose from a number of our most popular options including

  • Blind Wine Bluff – Our most popular format where you have to guess which wine is which?  Not as difficult as it sounds, under expert tuition you will learn lots and most importantly it’s great fun.
  • Classic Wine Tasting – A straightforward wine tasting session, can be tailored to whatever your interests are, or leave it to us to select some lovely wine.
  • Champagne/Sparkling Wine Tasting – If bubbles are your thing, then we can organise a great fizz tasting showcasing some great sparkling wines.
  • Cheese & Wine Pairing – Six lovely wine and cheese pairings.
  • Fine/Rare Wine Tasting – Whatever your interest we can put together something truly special for you.
  • Gin Tasting - Six premium gins with tonics and garnishes to suit.

Our wine tastings are entertaining and good fun, pitched at a level that ensures all the guests learn something new about wine and, most importantly, have a great time doing so.

Most tastings take around 2 hours, but we are never in a rush and are always happy to spend time talking about our passion for all things wine

We supply all the wine, and because we are independent and don’t sell wine there is absolutely no sales pressure.

We also supply ISO wine-tasting glasses and appropriate wine-tasting notes and handouts.

We usually advise a minimum party size of 10-12 for cost reasons. We can offer advice on themes and wines if you wish, or source wines to suit your own preference. Prices vary depending upon location, numbers, and of course the type of wine, but start from as little as £15 per head.

What our customers say...

Dear Gary,

After having experienced your wine tastings as a way to learn more about wine and subsequently as the host of a fabulous wine tasting party for our company, I am writing to thank you for putting on such an excellent team-building event for us. 

You bring a unique blend of knowledge, experience and most importantly good humour to your work and as a result everyone thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

The whole experience was very well organised, from the choice of wines to suit our budget and the theme of the event, through to arranging it, having wine delivered and the event itself.

As well as learning a lot and having a good time, you also helped to bring us together and provided some much needed light hearted entertainment after a difficult year. I would highly recommend you to anyone either wanting to learn more about wine from a real specialist, or wanting to treat their team or clients to a fun experience.

Steve Brown, Managing Director, Europrojects

We asked Gary to come along and organise a wine tasting 'competition' for a birthday celebration.  None of us were wine buffs, but we all felt we learned something and most importantly Gary managed to provide the perfect mix of fun and education.  There were lots of laughs but also lots of interesting facts and questions.  I'd highly recommend Shropshire Wine School for any sort of event where you want to create lasting memories.

 If we are ever in the area again I'll certainly be in touch and I'll definitely shop for wines with a different attitude now.

Catherine Starling, Staycationer

Gary's wine tasting was such a lovely way to round off our staycation in Shrewsbury! Our entire group loved the experience and we even went on to purchase some of the wines we tried. The selection of wines for the tasting are very accessible and reasonably priced if you did wish to buy any at the supermarket etc like we did. The quantities of wine are generous and the games fun. If you are simply interested in trying new wines or you genuinely would like to learn about wine Gary is your man!
