Fancy more fizz: Masterclass at Hanging Ditch with Morton Estate

The wine merchants of Hanging Ditch sure know their grapes, and now you can quench that thirst for knowledge with a masterclass taking place at the shop. The session will be presented by Morton Estate’s Mark Neil and will explore the various types of fizz available from the New Zealand vineyard. Although the choice in sparkling wines is limited to produce from Morton Estate, a range of tastings will be on offer throughout the night, including their Coniglio Chardonnay 2010, Mimi NV, NV Brut, Blanc de Blancs 2002, Blanc de Noirs 2005 and Black Label 2002. The evening also offers 10% off on all Morton Estate orders made at the masterclass, and 20% off a mixed dozen paid for on the night.
