The Biscuit Factory, Newcastle is set to host a Wines for the Curious event on July 23.
The event, which takes place 7-9pm, will be hosted by Danny Kitzman – a wine merchant, opera singer, doctoral researcher, and co-founder of The Hermit and The Glenstead. Tickets, which are £45 per person, include six wines, tasting materials and the opportunity to purchase featured bottles after the event.
“Every wine merchant has a handful of bottles they recommend over and over again,” said Danny. “Wines they pour for friends, or ones saved for customers who trust them; bottles they return to often enough that they find themselves still talking about them years later. Every now and then, one gets under your skin.
“Wines for the Curious is built around six bottles I keep coming back to. Some surprised me, some challenged assumptions, and some introduced me to places and producers I’ve never forgotten. None of them have quite let go of me since. For one evening at The Biscuit Factory, we’ll open all six.
“Together we’ll travel from the hills of the Marche to Corsica, Oregon, the Loire Valley and beyond, exploring bottles that have accompanied conversations, changed minds, sparked obsessions and somehow found their way back to the table time and time again.
“No prior wine knowledge is required, just curiosity.”
