Motor Mall Event 15.10.09


Kasia, Alick and Paulo went along to to represent Dunell's at the launch of the new generation of Land Rover last night at the Motor Mall.  As part of the event, we had been invited to hold a wine tasting.  Shaun Rankin's was also there to demostrate how to make his famous Treacle Tart (Winner from The Great British menu) so we thought it would be a great opportunity showcase wines that would match with the tart, especially as it is now sold in local shops and supermarkets. 

We had previously chosen 4 wines that we felt worked very well with it and then allowed guests to sample which one they liked.  Such a great opportunity to showcase 4 completely different wines to guests that may never have thought to match with a treacle tart; a port, riesling, muscadel and sherry.

Kasia wrote "I would like to say a huge thank you to Motor Mall for putting on a great evening and for the fantastic feedback during the wine tasting.  The event went very well indeed and it was great to see many surprised faces when they realised that a Tawny Port could also work well with the tart but undoubtedly the winner on the night was the Rietvallei Muscadel."
