Our Story – Bringing Wine to Life in Arnold

We’ve been delivering home wine tasting experiences since 2020. In 2022, we opened our first wine shop and tasting room giving the local community a place to explore wines in a relaxed and personal setting.

Our passion lies in helping people discover great wines, without the pressure or pretence. From carefully selected bottles to warm, hosted tastings, we bring everything to the table—literally.

Alongside wine, we now offer in-store tastings in whisky, rum, vodka and more. We also run exclusive craft beer tastings featuring Italian beers from Birranova, imported directly to Taste First.

In-Store Wine Tastings – Social, Relaxed, Local

Since opening our tasting room, we’ve expanded our tasting experiences for couples, small groups, and private parties.

We work closely with a local deli to offer optional meat and cheese boards, making your evening that bit more special. These extras have become hugely popular, especially for date nights or birthday celebrations.

Tastings can be arranged for groups of two to twenty. Just get in touch if you’re planning something bigger or want to book one of our themed tasting events.

Home Wine Tastings – A Private Experience

AIf you love wine but want to try something different, our home wine tasting experiences might be just what you’re looking for.

You can enjoy ten specially selected wines in the comfort of your own home, guided by one of our wine consultants. It’s casual, informative and completely tailored to you and your guests.

There’s no expiry on our vouchers, which makes them perfect gifts. Once you’ve purchased your voucher, simply contact us to book your date.
