Stevenage - Members' lunch
We cordially invite you to join us for a delicious lunch with your fellow members at our Stevenage cellars.
We will begin with a short introduction including a brief history of The Society from the comfort of the Members’ Room while you refresh with an aperitif, followed by a delicious four course meal paired with five wines.
Our friendly Tastings team will be on hand to guide you through the wines and dishes, offering interesting insights into the wines, their producers, and their winemaking practices, and chatting through why the food and wine pairings were chosen.
