TWO NIGHTS - Wednesday 23rd of February and Thursday 24 February. Daydreaming of spending a summer evening basking in the splendour of the Italian countryside? Join us at Annata Restaurant and we will take you on a food and wine adventure, exploring the very best of Italy’s food and wine.

​Guests will enjoy a stunning five-course Italian-inspired degustation, perfectly matched with ten premium yet unique Italian varietals, while learning from our expert host, Justin Walters about the many Italian terroirs and the great Italian vignerons.
