Cheese and Wine Tasting at Knowle – A Perfect Saturday Pairing: Volume 2, February
Join us at Loki Knowle for our most popular event: the Cheese and Wine Tasting. Spend a relaxed Saturday afternoon discovering why cheese and wine are one of the world’s most timeless pairings.
Guided by our expert host, you’ll explore seven wines from our carefully curated collection, each thoughtfully paired with an artisan cheese from our trusted local suppliers. Along the way, we’ll reveal the art and science of pairing – why acidity balances richness, how salt enhances fruit, and why Port is far from the only option for your cheeseboard.
This event is fun, informal, and educational – perfect for anyone looking to enjoy delicious combinations while learning something new.
