Escape the midweek routine and unwind in the cosy, welcoming atmosphere of Loki Knowle for an evening of cheese, wine, and good company. This relaxed yet educational and fun event is designed for wine lovers of all levels — whether you’re a seasoned enthusiast or just starting your journey.
We’ll be tasting a curated selection of wines from around the world, each thoughtfully paired with exceptional cheeses to highlight the magic of perfect pairings. From bold reds to crisp whites and even a surprise or two, every sip and bite will bring out new flavours and textures, revealing the art of pairing wine and cheese like a pro.
Our expert host will guide you through the tasting, sharing insights into wine styles, regions, and pairing principles, all in a laid-back and interactive setting. Expect plenty of laughs, great conversation, and a deeper appreciation for the delicious synergy between wine and cheese.
Whether you come solo, with a friend, or as part of a group, this is the perfect way to treat yourself midweek, discover new favourites, and enjoy an evening of indulgence.
Here are the pairings you can expect:
Burrata & Frappato – Burrata’s creamy centre and delicate flavour contrast beautifully with Frappato’s light body, red cherry fruit, and subtle earthiness. It’s a chilled red and cheese combo that’s both indulgent and refreshing.
Raclette & Savagnin – Raclette is rich and nutty, and Savagnin (especially oxidative styles) brings sherry-like depth, minerality, and acidity that cuts through the fat while echoing the cheese’s alpine umami.
Torta del Casar & Txakoli – The soft, spoonable intensity of Torta del Casar is bold and slightly bitter. Txakoli’s bracing acidity, low alcohol, and spritzy nature cleanse and contrast, highlighting the cheese’s creamy funk.
Red Leicester & Côtes du Rhône – This pairing brings together the nutty, savoury strength of Red Leicester with the warm spice, berry fruit, and soft tannins of a southern Rhône red. It’s a cozy, richly flavoured combo.
Mozzarella di Bufala & Pecorino Romano & Verdicchio – Pairing two cheeses — the milky, soft mozzarella and salty, aged Pecorino — with Verdicchio’s floral and almond notes offers contrast and harmony. The wine bridges the fresh and sharp elements beautifully.
Livarot & Sicilian Catarratto – Livarot’s washed rind funk and soft, meaty texture get a lift from Catarratto’s lemony snap and herbal edge. The wine refreshes while embracing the cheese’s intensity.
Drunken Goat (Murcia al Vino) & Zweigelt – This semi-firm goat cheese is washed in red wine, and Zweigelt — with its plum, spice, and soft tannins — mirrors and elevates that fruitiness while letting the goat cheese’s creaminess shine.
Enjoy a gourmet evening that’s all about delighting the senses and expanding your taste horizons!
