Hola! A Spanish wine-tasting event will take place at the East Farndon Village Hall on Saturday 14th November 2026, starting at 7.00pm, to raise funds for Marriott Green.

You will get the chance to sample six different wines, chosen by Mr Lee Knights, who will talk about each wine. The wines will be accompanied by Spanish sharing boards. Lee is a wine enthusiast, who has generously agreed to host this event for free. Before and after the wine-tasting, there will be a licensed bar and there will also be a raffle.

The event costs £20 per person. Places must be booked and paid for in advance by Friday 6th November 2026, so we know how much wine and food to buy. Tickets are available from Caroline or Russell Burton via WhatsApp or email marriottgreeneastfarndon@gmail.com. Please let us know if you have any dietary requirements or allergies. Tables will be for six people, so if you want to book as a group, please book as a table for six, or let us know if you want to sit with friends, and we will try and accommodate.

We look forward to raising a glass (or at least six) with you!
