Hippodrome Wine Club-upcoming tasting
Before the pandemic, I had heard about the Hippodrome Wine Club and, as I had gone occasionally to the Hippodrome to gamble a bit, I think it’s a great idea that they have their own wine club. I received this press release and am happy to pass along this information to my readers. I’ll be in California later this month so I will miss the upcoming Federalist tasting but I’ll be doing my own California tastings while I’m there!
“The Hippodrome Wine Club, the event series offering guests unprecedented access to its wine cellar and little black book of winemakers, will continue into 2022 with an exciting new masterclass with one of the world’s best loved and most prestigious producers, Federalist Wines.
Hosted by sommelier and The Hippodrome’s Head of Wine Salvo Russo and award-winning American craft wine makers Federalist, the event on Tuesday 25th January will transport guests through the expansive vineyards of California, showcasing an extensive selection of world-class wines, ranging from light crisp Chardonnay, a bold and fruity Zinfandel to Bourbon barrel-aged Cabernet Sauvignons.
The ticketed event will take place in the Boozy Tea Room lounge, where guests will sample the premium wines alongside a curated dinner menu of seasonal dishes from Executive Chef, Ioannis Grammenos, with every course created to pair perfectly with each wine showcased.
Located in Sonoma County, Federalist’s vineyards produce 100% estate grown and single vineyard wines, all controlled by the winery to guarantee quality and consistency. With a reputation for craftmanship, heritage and full-bodied wines with depth and intensity in flavour, this exclusive masterclass is one you won’t want to miss. Tickets are available now and are priced at £80 pp inclusive of the masterclass, tasting and paired menu – early booking is recommended to avoid disappointment…”
