The Cuculo Big Christmas Tasting Chapter 2
Don’t buy your Christmas wine until you’ve tasted this year’s selection at Cuculo. Once you’ve completed the tasting, send us your order – either online, by email, in-store or over the phone.
A Wine Tour with James MacNay
This is one of two online tastings, each of 10 wines, chosen with your Christmas cellar in mind. The event is participatory and we encourage questions and comments.
The price is £20 per person. However please note that there is an £8 bottle deposit included in the booking price (per single or double booking). This is fully refundable on safe return of the bottles in reusable condition*.
The tasting not only includes the wines, but also treats from our counters and a voucher to spend against a purchase of the wines tasted. (NB A £30 minimum purchase value applies).
Learn more about how how it works – including our innovative “Circular Tasting” concept – and book your event via the “Book Now” link above. We look forward to welcoming you to our unique, informal and enjoyable event.
*We appreciate that it might not be convenient or especially cost-effective for you to send us back the bottles, so if you would rather hang on to them, that is fine by us.

An important note about ordering & delivery
If you are unable to collect from our shop, or live outside our 5-mile free local delivery radius, but it is imperative that the wines you order arrive by Christmas, then we would advise you to choose Chapter 1. The reason for this is that for obvious reasons the delivery infrastructure will be under unusually heavy pressure and our third party warehouse and couriers cannot guarantee their usual delivery timetable.
