In our first Wine & Dine dinner party, we meet wine expert Peter Richards and our hosts Elizabeth and Richard.
Elizabeth explains how the spirits of her forefathers tell her what to prepare for dinner that night, while Peter introduces us to some exciting wine and food partnerships and shares his tips about wine temperature, decanting and other useful gems.
Find out who has romantic moments with food, who keeps bumping into their ex-fiance at airports and who most resembles a Lambrusco.
Above all, find out more about the pleasures of drinking wine.
The guests: Our guests are a lively bunch, but do they know anything about wine? And what do they think of one another?
The wine: The choice of wine is key to the success of a dinner party. Luckily there's a wine expert on hand to help.
The food: A dinner party wouldn't be a dinner party without the, um, dinner, so we've got some mouth-watering food on offer.
