Michele from Cantine Lenotti will be joining us on 16th October to guide us through a great selection of Lenotti wines from the northern Italian wine regions around Lake Garda and Verona.

TUESDAY 22ND OCTOBER. 7.30PM. WINE AND LITERATURE (VOLUME 2) TASTING
It's 18 months since our fist 'Wine in Literature' tasting and we've since discovered more great wines which have links to great works of literature.
We'll be tasting the wines and discussing the works of literature they either feature in or refer to...
If you love books and you love wine, come and join us!
SATURDAY 26TH OCTOBER. 12.30PM - 10PM. WINE AND TAROT
Leading psychic, Alex Beattie is coming back to Brigitte Bordeaux on Saturday 26th October for our ever popular ‘Wine and Tarot’ event. A half hour tarot reading and glass of wine is priced at £30. Bookings are being taken throughout the day, from 12.30pm until 10pm. Give us a ring to book your slot.
4TH - 10TH NOVEMBER. INTERNATIONAL SHERRY WEEK
Not an event, as such but we’ll be celebrating International Sherry Week all week with plenty of sherry open to taste in the shop and drink by the glass in the bar with some perfect food pairings. Come down and join us for it!
WEDNESDAY 13TH NOVEMBER. 7.30PM. M.CHAPOUTIER TASTING: RHONE, ROUSSILLON AND BEYOND
In September, I was very lucky to be invited to France to visit the vineyards and taste the wines of iconic producer, M.Chapoutier in the Rhône Valley and in Roussillon.
It was fascinating to see and to taste how the terroirs of each of the different appellations we visited are reflected in their wines.
Following my trip to France, I'm very excited to bring the wines of this iconic French producer back to Sherwood to share with you.
This tasting will cover some of the famous appellations of the Rhône Valley as well as some of the producer's lesser known wines, certainly from Roussillon and possibly from even further afield (did you know that M.Chapoutier also makes wine in Australia?)
We're looking forward to this one and hope that you can join us! THIS EVENT IS NOW SOLD OUT
THURSDAY 21ST NOVEMBER. BEAUJOLAIS NOUVEAU DAY
We’re yet to finalise plans for this year’s Beaujolais Nouveau Day, but we’ll definietly be pouring two great Beaujolais Nouveaux by the glass with some French nibbles to accompany them, so put it in your diary!
TUESDAY 26TH NOVEMBER. 7.30PM. BRIGITTE’S BEST OF 2024
We don't need much of an excuse to re-taste our favourite wines of the year, so if you'd like to join us, we're happy to crack open the bottles.
As well as our favourites and wines that have meant something significant to us in 2024, we'll also be revisiting some of our guests' favourites from this year's tastings.
Great wine guaranteed; we hope to see you there! THIS EVENT IS NOW SOLD OUT
MONDAY 2ND, TUESDAY 3RD AND WEDNESDAY 4TH DECEMBER. 7.30PM. FESTIVE FIZZ TASTINGS
Yes, we're not messing about this year, we're putting three 'Festive Fizz' tastings on the calendar from the off!
Having said that, we're selling fewer tickets than usual for each tasting so don't hang around if you want to secure your place.
Our 'Festive Fizz' tastings are always full of fun, fizz and festive cheer. If that sounds good to you, book your ticket today!
Tickets for this tasting are at the slightly higher price of £37 per person to account for the more expensive wines being shown (and a bit of extra festive foodie fare)!
SUNDAY 8TH DECEMBER. 1PM-5PM. BRIGITTE’S CHRISTMAS FAIR
This is always a great day where we open lots of wines for you to taste and invite local makers and craftspeople to come and sell their wares.
Tickets are £20pp for a two-hour time slot. Please let us know if you'd like to join us between 1pm and 3pm or 3pm and 5pm. Your £20 ticket not only gets you plenty of wine to taste, it also gives you 10% off the purchase of any of your favourites on the day.
It's an afternoon full of festive cheer and also the perfect opportunity to stock up with delicious wines for Christmas.
We hope you can make it!
WEDNESDAY 11TH DECEMBER. 7.30PM. FESTIVE FORTIFIEDS TASTING
If there's anything that can equal 'Festive Fizz' for fun, it's 'Festive Fortifieds'.
Port, Sherry, Madeira, Marsala and much more! We'll be tasting some great wines that will be the perfect Christmas fireside tipples as well as partners for your Christmas dishes and desserts.
We love fortified wines and if you do too, we'd love you to join us!
