Tom Gilbey

Charismatic wine expert Tom Gilbey – infamous for running the London Marathon while blind-tasting a different wine every mile en route – shares hilarious wine and food stories, offers tips on how to tell your Barolo from your Beaujolais, decode labels, pick the perfect bottle and generally level up your vino expertise and enjoyment. He'll be talking to Faversham wine connoisseur and author Henry Jeffreys. Tickets include a glass of red or white wine (175ml) on arrival.

Tom Gilbey is an award-winning wine expert and has fast become one of Instagram's favourite faces. Pioneers of the wine trade, in 1875 the Gilbeys were the first British family to buy a Bordeaux Chateau, and they founded the legendary Gilbey’s Gin. With over 30 years in the industry, Tom has been a winemaker, merchant, educator, public speaker, columnist and, most recently, an accidental Internet sensation – doing silly things like sipping Chardonnay in an ice bath... and the rest! https://www.instagram.com/tomgilbeywine
