Three wines. Three pairings. One very relaxed Friday night.
Fancy doing something a little different on a Friday evening?
Join us at Daws Hill Winery for The Friday Flight — a casual evening of wine, food and a few unexpected combinations.
Each session features three carefully chosen wines from three different English vineyards, paired with three different foods or snacks.
Sometimes the pairing will be a classic. Sometimes it might be crisps, chocolate, popcorn, biscuits or something you really wouldn’t expect to see alongside a glass of wine.
The idea is simple: taste, experiment and decide what you actually like.
I’ll guide you through each wine, tell you a little about what’s in your glass and we’ll see what happens when you put it together with the food.
No wine knowledge needed. No complicated tasting notes. No stuffiness.
Just good wine, interesting food and a Friday night in the winery.
THIS WEEK’S FLIGHT
🍫 WINE & CHOCOLATE
Wine and chocolate. Surely that’s a match made in heaven?
Maybe.
This week we’re putting three English wines to the test alongside three different chocolate pairings — from creamy and fruity to rich, dark and a little bit salty.
Taste the wine, taste the chocolate, then taste them together.
Will they make each other better? Or will one completely overpower the other?
There’s only one way to find out…

THE SETTING
The tasting takes place inside the Daws Hill Winery in Radnage, Buckinghamshire.
It’s a working winery rather than a polished restaurant, so expect a rustic, relaxed atmosphere — particularly during the winter months.
The winery is unheated, so please come prepared with warm layers, a coat and sensible shoes. Think cosy winter evening rather than fine dining!
Spaces are limited.
Bring a friend, come straight from work or make a proper Friday night of it.
No wine snobbery. No rules. Just wine, food and a little experimentation.
