GWW is in London to take over Princes Arcade, Piccadilly
Laura on 10 May 2013
Last night Great Western Wine joined forces with menswear clothing label Smart Turnout to help launch their summer collection (yes is rained).
Under the cover of Princes Arcade, Piccadilly, fashionistas gathered to learn about the Ridgeview Grosvenor and Fitzrovia from our very own English Wine Buyer Maggie Macpherson. Once tickled with a glass of fizz the attendants were talked through a range of white and red wines by Edward Mercer, whilst perusing the Summer Collection in Smart Turnout’s flagship shop.
Wines of the night:
Philip Turner, Founder of Smart Turnout:
2010 Crozes Hermitage Cuvée Albéric Bouvet, Domaine Gilles Robin
Caroline Watson, Smart Turnout, Marketing:
2010 Fitzrovia Cuvée Merret Rosé, Ridgeview
Look of the night:
A up-and coming English actor attending the tasting: 1920 pressed white shirt, braces, tweed trousers cut off just above the ankle, brown brogues and bright violet socks
