An Italian Extravaganza in Mayfair
An Italian Extravaganza in Mayfair

The Plot
Our client wanted to create a fun lively atmosphere in which the key attendees of their international conference could rub shoulders and enjoy themselves

The Plan
With all the attendees staying in the same hotel getting the location right was a must. Luckily the amazing venue Home House was a 5 minute walk away and had the traditional English splendour that the central London can
do so well.
The Presentation
When guests came through, we gave everyone a glass of grand cru champagne, allowing everyone to mingle and make their way through their fair share of canapés and champagé.
We moved the guests through to the quiz/dining room where they blind tasted their way through 5 wines. Unsurprisingly the French contingent nailed the Premier Cru Burgundies, but everyone was a bit lost on an Austrian Gruner Veltliner. The surprise favourite of the evening was a Bulgarian Pinot Noir.
With scores tallied up and winners given a magnum of Barolo and losers getting a wooden spoon we then moved on to dinner, throughout, which we kept everyone's glasses topped up with their favourite wines from the tasting.




The Prompt
As the guests left they were each given two half bottles to take home, with notes handwritten from the wine's grower.
Feedback:

Consilio

We’ve done this a few times with the Tom Gilbey team. It’s great fun, brilliantly executed and the perfect platform to engage with our clients, future partners and colleagues. The wine is of course delicious and makes the whole experience brilliant. I couldn’t recommend this more highly for intimate, interesting and engaging client time.
