About this Event

Tucked between mountains and rivers, Bosnia & Herzegovina has been making wine for centuries. Very few people outside its borders have tasted it. Until now.

Hosted inside the Embassy of Bosnia & Herzegovina, Master of Wine Christopher Burr will guide guests through a carefully curated tasting of indeginous wines from two of the country's most celebrated producers - Vinarija Čitluk and Grgo Vasilj - all paired with traditional, regional food.

The Wine Guild of the UK is pleased to announce that The Bosnia and Herzegovina Ambassador to the UK will be joining us a guest of honour at the event.
