The Business Leaders Wine Club, Brighton, 24/6/2026
Can you really taste the difference between a posh bottle and a perfectly good quaffer?
We return with our most hotly debated tasting of the year, putting your palate to the test with 4 blind-tasted pairs of wines – one fancy, one humble, all served side by side
- You taste. You guess. We reveal
- Equal parts red and white
- Cheeses and charcuterie to keep us grounded
- Welcome drink to get the guessing started
What makes this event truly special? It’s the perfect format to spark real conversation. Whether you’re agreeing (or not!) on what’s in your glass, this tasting is a brilliant shared experience. It’s relaxed, memorable and full of lighthearted debate.
It’s also a great way to build relationships in business, because we all know that connections made over wine tend to last longer (and lead to better follow-ups).
Welcome Drink Sponsor – Everflyht
We’re delighted to welcome Everflyht as our drinks sponsor for this event, serving their exciting new sparkling cuvée, Wylde.
Produced in the Sussex Downs using the Charmat method, Wylde represents a fresh and innovative approach to English sparkling wine. By embracing a style more commonly associated with wines such as Prosecco, Everflyht has created a vibrant, fruit-forward cuvée that offers a different expression of Sussex winemaking, whilst delivering exceptional quality at a more accessible price point.
We’re also pleased to be joined by Everflyht’s General Manager, Luke Spalding, who will be our special guest for the evening. With a background in viticulture and a key role in guiding Everflyht’s transition towards more regenerative vineyard practices, Luke brings a unique perspective on both the business and craft of modern winemaking.
During the event, we’ll take a short break from the tasting to explore the story behind the vineyard, the philosophy that inspired Wylde, and Everflyht’s commitment to producing wines that reflect both place and purpose. Guests will also have the opportunity to put their questions directly to Luke in an informal Q&A session.
Enjoy a glass on arrival and discover a new chapter in the evolution of Sussex wine.
We hope to see you there.
