Virgin Wines to double its consumer tasting programme

Published: 16 February, 2011

Virgin Wines is to double its national consumer wine tasting programme for 2011 by visiting more UK cities.

In addition to events held in London, Manchester, Norwich, Leeds and Edinburgh, the online wine retailer will be heading to Cardiff, Bristol, Birmingham, Belfast, Reading, Sheffield and Nottingham.

Events range from small, intimate tastings in the new destinations to large, flagship events in the established locations.

Jay Wright, managing director of Virgin Wines said: "We're delighted with how popular these tasting events proved to be and, as a result, have decided to more than double the number of events we host this year. We are very excited to be visiting both Wales and Northern Ireland for the first time, along with a number of cities in the Midlands and Southern England. Wine tastings are a great way for us to meet with our customers and show them our range of wines."

The programme commences on March 3, in Cardiff and culminates in Nottingham November 10.www.virginwines.co.uk
