While we might not actually be jetting off to Buenos Aires, there’s absolutely no reason why we can’t bring a fiesta of Argentinian flavours to London. Just imagine wandering through the gorgeous vineyard landscape, sipping on a crisp glass of wine and indulging in mouthwatering food with your nearest and dearest – all experienced from the cosy comforts of… Shoreditch. Yep – just a hop, skip and a jump from Old Street Station, we’ve found an exclusive East London wine tasting that’s going to be a real corker.
The Viva Viñalba experience is the ultimate celebration of Argentinian wine, combining an exclusive guided tasting led by Viñalba owner Diane Fabre, with the estate’s full range of wines. The three-hour long, one-off experience on Wednesday 12th October will allow guests to immerse themselves in the UK’s favourite Argentinian wine for an evening, and discover delicious food and wine pairings in the process.
Wine that’s all about connection
Created by a husband-and-wife team, Viñalba was created from the connection between Bordeaux winemaker Hervé J. Fabre and his visionary wife, Diane – whose shared ethos is that chemistry brings us together to share moments.
Launched in 2007, it has already won 297 medals, including 20 trophies in major international wine competitions.
Viñalba wine was created together, to be shared together. This is a night to experience the joy of coming together while exploring Argentinian wines, savouring culinary bites and dancing to the best beats.

What can I expect on the night?
To kick off your night, wine-lovers will be led through a guided wine tasting with Viñalba’s visionary owner and winemaker Diane Fabre. Know absolutely nothing about wine? No worries, this is just the wine tasting experience for you. Diane will help you discover the mysterious world of wines, learn how it’s made, and share tips and tricks for serving and pairing Argentinian wines.
The brand is built around the Malbec grape, but you’ll discover that it’s not all about the red – Viñalba also has deliciously fresh, crisp white and rosé wines within their range, so there’ll be something for everyone’s taste, showcasing the diverse range of wines that Viñalba has to offer.
And, if that wasn’t exciting enough, there’ll also be street food and a DJ, so you can savour culinary bites with an Argentinian twist and dance to the best beats as the DJ spins the tunes.

What wines will I get to taste?

From fruity whites and rosés to vibrant reds, you’ll take a sensory journey across Argentina from Mendoza to Patagonia. One sip of Viñalba Wines will transport you straight to the inspiring scenery and sunny climates of South America.
