The CHAMPAGNE Challenge was a most enjoyable and extremely informative evening. Anya and her team were most attentive and the interchange between them was most interesting. Anya was excellent and was most informative. I certainly have a greater understanding of the variety within the area. It was interesting to sample champagne producers outside the major commercial houses.A great evening and very informative.

A fantastic night to learn the basics of Champagne tasting. Opened my eyes to the pleasures of alternatives to the big champagne houses. Great value, great conversation, great event.
