OUR APPROACH TO
WINE EXPERIENCES
Alexander Fleming summed it up perfectly when he said….
“Penicillin cures, but wine makes people happy.”
Wine has been produced for thousands of years - and throughout this fascinating history, it has been shared: with family and friends, colleagues
and customers, strangers and partners. It brings us pleasure, helps us unwind, forge new relationships and strengthen old ties.
And it can be really, seriously delicious.
Today, Wild Boar offers more than just a good glass of wine. We create memorable wine experiences at the intersection of entertainment
and education, resulting in a fabulous tasting experience whenever and whomever you are.
Bespoke Virtual Wine Tasting Events
Ticketed Virtual Wine Tasting Events
In Person Wine Dinners & Tastings
Virtual Wine, Cheese & Sourdough Bake-Off
Our virtual events proved to be a real hit during 2021 and have continued well into 2024 alongside our in-person offerings.
Easy to organise and fantastic value, Wild Boar Wine Events provide an unforgettable experience that can be shared with as many as you like.
BESPOKE VIRTUAL WINE TASTING EVENTS
Brazilian author Paulo Coelho was on the money when he said…
“Accept what life offers you and try to drink from every cup. All wines should be tasted; some should only be sipped, but with others, drink the whole bottle.”
At Wild Boar we believe there are few better ways to spend an hour or two than to
unwind in the company of like-minded folk and enjoy a couple of glasses of wine.
Virtual wine events have never been more popular. Whether it is a family gathering,
a group of friends or a company event, more and more people today are bonding
over a glass of wine (or two).
Our bespoke wine tastings can be for as many people as you like (as long as you’re sensible!) and typically last for 1.5 hours (ultimately it’s up to you).
We work with you to craft the tasting to your needs and agree your wine choices.
What about indulging yourself in a ‘vertical’ tasting of your favourite wine, perhaps
three consecutive vintages of Gaja Brunello di Montalcino or Echézeaux Grand
Cru Domaine Louis Jadot? The choice is yours.
If you want a wine ‘theme’ no problem. If you want us to also host include a quiz,
again, no problem. We can do formal, although we prefer to let our hair
down a little…
Attendees can join from their home, office or pretty much anywhere they can get an internet connection and all wines are delivered in advance.
Wild Boar Founder David Alexander will host the event with you.
David knows the wines intimately and will bring your tasting to life with anecdotes,
his experience of wine, and a sense of humour!
So whatever the reason and whoever the guests may be, now could not be a
better time to organise your very own Bespoke Virtual Wine Tasting.

TICKETED VIRTUAL WINE TASTING EVENTS
Our Ticketed Virtual Wine Tastings brought together hundreds of wine lovers - from novices to experts - during 2021 and beyond. Indeed, our Virtual Wine Quizzes have also proven to be immensely popular – congratulations to all our Quiz Winners!
We are convinced that Virtual Wine Tastings remain a popular alternative to in-person events - so far the evidence supports our belief!
They are a great, affordable way to explore the world of wines from the comfort of your own home. All you have to do is tell us how many tickets you want, complete your payment, and we send you the wines and Zoom invite ahead of the event.
IN-PERSON WINE DINNERS & TASTINGS
We are delighted that we are now 100% back in the business of running hugely popular
In-Person Wine Dinners & Tastings.
We got back up and running in June 2021 (with restrictions) but since the start of 2022 it has been full steam ahead.
Our Wine Dinners and Tastings have taken place in many exciting, top quality establishments including Dukes Hotel in Mayfair, 67 Pall Mall, Café Murano, Frescobaldi in Mayfair, The In & Out Club and many others.
We work with these and other premises, as well as established chefs, hotels and unique venues to provide exclusive, sophisticated top quality experiences for our clients.
To discuss your event requirements, email David at david@wildboarwineevents.com or call on 07917 160553.
VIRTUAL CHEESE & WINE TASTING
When wine alone is not enough, allow us to tempt you with an unrivalled selection of cheese from around the world. It's time to host your very own Cheese & Wine Party!
Remember these? Well now is the perfect time to enjoy the very best a cheese and wine party can offer – Wild Boar style!
As well as the wineries we represent, we have teamed up with two exquisite cheese companies, The Fine Cheese Company of Bath and Belgravia and Paxton & Whitfield of Mayfair.
We will curate a harmonious selection to make your Cheese & Wine Party the talk of the town!
PS Crackers, biscuits, chutneys, pickles and charcuterie (including wild boar) are also available!
VIRTUAL WINE, CHEESE & SOURDOUGH 'BAKE-OFF'
We might not have Mary Berry, but we do have our very own resident artisan sourdough baker, Eddy www.iamedbaker.com @iamedbaker
Eddy runs Ed Baker a micro-bakery creating sourdough bread and artisan food influenced by heritage recipes. Eddy is a supporter of the Real Bread Campaign and actively promotes the values of food made from genuine ingredients.
Driven by the love and passion Eddy has for good food, his recipes are influenced by the richness and diversity of East Mediterranean and European cuisines. From his Mum’s kitchen and beyond, Eddy is inspired by the pursuit of authentic culinary experiences.
David and Eddy will put on a Wine, Cheese and Sourdough afternoon or evening which will be fun, rewarding and delicious!
Not only will Eddy help you with the basics of making the perfect sourdough loaf but we will ensure that you and your guests have an entertaining experience, complimented with the very finest wines, cheese and sourdough loaves all sent to you in advance.
Aprons at the ready!
CHAMPAGNE & CAVIAR EVENING
When only the best and most indulgent of experiences will do, look no further than your very own Champagne & Caviar Evening.
Our partnerships with one of the most respected champagne houses, Taittinger, and the UK's most respected caviar importer, Kings Fine Food, allows us to host the most luxurious of champagne and caviar evenings for your enjoyment.
Including Beluga, Oscietra and Sevruga we will pair these very best caviars with the finest champagnes from the Taittinger champagne house, including the legendary Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blanc Brut and the ever so sweet Nocturne Sec.
For every Champagne and Caviar Evening we host we will donate £200 to our preferred charity, The John King Brain Tumour Foundation.
This could provide the perfect solution for a romantic evening for two or why not invite a crowd and share the magic!
