HE'S BACK! For one night only!

As part of our Sale branch's 10th Birthday celebrations, we are hosting a very special wine tasting - with our original manager James Hands. Young James (well, he's not actually that young!) left Cork of the North six years ago to work for the UK's top importer of Portuguese wine, and will making a one-off reappearance at our Sale branch for a very special WINES OF PORTUGAL tasting on Wednesday June 10th.

James will be showcasing the very best that Portugal has to offer, with some delicious reds, whites, Madeira and of course, Port. We will also be sampling some delicious Portuguese snacks to go with the wine, and it's fair to say that this will be a very enjoyable event indeed. We will also be offering a generous discount on any Portuguese wines bought on the evening.

James's Wines of Portugal tasting on Wednesday June 10th starts at 7.45pm, and tickets are £40pp - available now, by clicking the link below. Tickets are limited (as we can only fit so many people into our Sale branch!) so please book your tickets asap to avoid disappointment.
