Welcome to Bow Wine Nights
“London’s most inclusive wine tastings”
Each session we focus on a different theme, from Champagne vs England to a deep-dive into Pinot Noir, or exploring the wines of Italy to looking at emerging new regions.
At each Bow Wine Night we’ll be opening six wines for you to try, hosted by our expert tasters; all you need to do is arrive with a curious palate and an open mind.
JUNE
ENGLAND UNCORKED: A TASTE OF BALFOUR
Mondays | 6:30 pm – 8 pm | £30pp
Think English wine is all drizzle and damp vineyards? Think again.
Join us for an evening that celebrates the best of what our Kent vineyards have to offer. From crisp whites to vibrant rosé and expressive still reds, you’ll taste six standout Balfour wines that capture the energy and innovation of modern English winemaking.
Whether you’re a curious newcomer or a seasoned sipper, this guided tasting is your chance to explore what sets Balfour Winery apart.
Come with an open mind and leave with a new favourite glass.
A ROSÉ BY ANY OTHER NAME
Wednesdays | 6:30 pm – 8 pm | £35pp
Join us as we pull back the curtain on the world of pink wine; dry, fruity, dark, pale, delicate, and everything in between. This is your chance to taste six distinctive styles side-by-side, spanning multiple countries and characters, and learn what makes a good rosé… well, good.
We won’t spoil the lineup but expect some surprises and maybe a few wines you’ll want to hoard for your next picnic.
It’s a rosé-tinted ride with a bit of bite.
CRISPS & WINE: A Matchstick Made in Heaven
Fridays | 6:30 pm – 8 pm | £30pp
Ever wondered what wine pairs best with a Bacon Frazzle? No? Well, now you’re curious, aren’t you?
This is your chance to explore the fine and fun art of matching nostalgic snack foods with genuinely good wine. This tasting is all about crunchy childhood favourites getting a surprisingly grown-up glow-up.
You’ll sip six wines, crunch through six beloved crisps, and leave with a newfound respect for sour cream & chive Pringles. It’s playful, a bit ridiculous, and surprisingly educational.

Effervescent, elegant, and a little bit salty.

Cheese, wine, and good times. Need we say more?

ITALY & ARANCINI
Wednesdays | 6:30 pm – 8 pm | £40pp
Get ready for golden Italian balls in your mouth; crispy, cheesy, and dangerously moreish.
We’re pairing bite-sized arancini with six delicious Italian wines: from flirtatious fizz to full-bodied reds that know how to leave a lasting impression. It’s where comfort food meets class. Eat and drink like the romans.
Small bites. Big pours. Plenty of sauce.
