Tastings around the province of Utrecht
We sometimes make exceptions for larger groups. Please ask: info@elixir.events
Whether you are a beginner or advanced, the focus of our tastings is that it is accessible to all. During the tasting we will play several games where you have to work together. So, it is sociable, enjoyable and rich in knowledge.
The products that are included are of a sustainable nature. This means, among other things, that we find it important that as few chemicals & pesticides as possible are used in the production of the product. We like to work with organic, biological, biodynamic, and products that are not certified but adhere to these standards. Better for nature and for people!
Tastings can already be organized from 4 to 16 people. It is possible to purchase the products afterward the tasting.
Reviews
Had a very pleasant wine tasting with cheese combinations with family. Amazed at what different flavors can do in combination. Well cared for and a nice balance between fun and information. The 2 hours flew by. Afterwards I was able to buy a bottle of my favorite so we could enjoy the afterglow. Thank you for the pleasant and atmospheric evening Shade! Worth repeating!
Had a very nice great experience, good taste variations.
To be repeated!!
We have asked Shade to organize a wine tasting for a group of friends of 10 people. It was a very successful evening:
– Shade knows a lot about wines, tells a lot and is happy to answer all questions!
– She starts with very original “scent” games, which are already triggered for the tasting. I wondered beforehand if that wasn’t too childish, but it’s a huge eye-opener.
– She takes all the time for the group, very nice! No rush at all.
– Original wines and nice matching cheeses.
– And above all: delicious wines!
And all that for an affordable price. I will definitely ask Shade for other groups in the future!
A nice and pleasant lady with lots of tasty wine and snacks! Funny games in between…the whole thing had a very nice and relaxed atmosphere! Highly recommended!
Repeated due to great success, Restaurant Vroeg organised yet another farmer's market this year where several local farmers and producers proudly show their products.
Drinking a cool red wine at a summer barbecue? Why not! Many people think of fresh white wines, a cold beer or a cocktail when they think of warm weather, but summer red can be very surprising. There are red wines that you can drink perfectly chilled. Ideal for the summer. Shadé Polman of Elixir Events knows all about it. As an expert in wine and food, she not only organizes wine tastings at your home. She also gives a Gin tasting where you make your own cocktail.
