The inaugural Real Wine Fair will take place in Holborn, London WC1 on Sunday 20th May between 10.00am and 6.00pm, giving wine and food lovers the opportunity to meet winemakers from 13 countries and taste over 600 organically or biodynamically produced wines. Tickets are now on sale for £20 per ticket at www.therealwinefair.com.

 

Frost Magazine has teamed up with The Real Wine Fair to give away a pair of tickets. One lucky winner and their guest will be able to meet and talk to the growers, whilst tasting a diverse range of honest, terroir-driven wines.

Three leading London restaurants, Ottolenghi, The Modern Pantry and Morito, will provide an array of delicious tapas-style dishes for the Real Wine Café. Coffee will be from renowned roasters Caravan in Exmouth Market whilst Camden Brewery will be dispensing cooling beers.

Spitalfields Market affineur and cheesemonger Androuet will be exhibiting a selection of seasonal cheeses, whilst award-winning north London deli Melrose & Morgan will have an array of tasty nibbles to try. Hansen & Lydersen will be providing small platters of freshly cut salmon from their smokehouse in Stoke Newington. There will also be tables dedicated to artisan bread, charcuterie and chocolate. The great tradition of London distilling will be showcased by Hammersmith’s Sipsmith with their London Dry Gin and English Barley Vodka and Highgate’s Sacred Microdistillery with their wonderful boutique Gin, a London-style dry Vodka and a vermouth.

There will be an exhibition of contemporary paintings and posters from cartoonist Michel Tolmer on wine-related themes. Several real wine ‘heroes’ have been lined up for a series of free seminars and debates. Plus director and producer Jonathan Nossiter will present the UK première of the 10-part series of his critically acclaimed film “Mondovino” in the “wine cinema.”

All of the wines on show at the fair will be available to purchase from an on-site pop-up shop, created specifically for the event.

In conjunction with The Real Wine Fair, restaurants across the UK are being invited to take part in Real Wine Month throughout May, and give their customers the chance to try natural wines by the glass. A (growing) list of restaurants can be found here: http://therealwinefair.com/real-wine-month/.
