Cheese and Wine Tasting at Knowle – A Saturday Afternoon Classic: Volume 3, March
Spend a delicious Saturday afternoon at Loki Knowle discovering why cheese and wine remain one of the world’s most irresistible pairings. This relaxed, flavour-filled event explores seven wines from our curated collection, each matched with an artisan cheese chosen to highlight contrast, harmony, and pure indulgence.
Guided by our expert host, you’ll learn how elements like acidity, sweetness, tannin, and texture shape the pairing experience — and why some combinations sing while others clash. Expect a mix of classic favourites and creative new matches designed to expand your palate and spark fresh inspiration for your next cheeseboard.
Fun, informal, and full of discovery, this Cheese and Wine Tasting is perfect for anyone who loves great wine, great cheese, and great company.
