CAVAVIN The Wine Shop - Newcastle — Restaurant in Newcastle upon Tyne

Honestly 2 stars feels really harsh I wanted to give 2.5- but I wouldn’t recommend the wine tasting experience.

Nibbles selection is very generous but in terms of the wine, you only get 4 small glasses and we found out at the end that each bottle is worth 10-13£. Doesn’t feel good value for money for an experience that is £25 a head.

If you’re a first time wine taster like me, I wouldn’t recommend cos I didn’t really understand much more about wine tasting. If you are an experienced wine taster I’d, recommend getting flights of 3 taster glasses rather than the tasting experience.

I think they missed a trick- I’d have been so willing to spend more on getting a bottle of a wine I liked but I only got to taste 4, and the 4 I tasted honestly weren’t game changers. They should also bring out the bottle for each as ur tasting them so you remember which is which better.

Guy who served us was lovely though and very...

My wife and I went along for a wine tasting, an experience bought for us as a gift by our son at Christmas. We weren't too sure what to expect but assumed we'd be given the hard sell and end up walking out with a case of wine we didn't want and couldn't afford! How wrong we were.

We were greeted by Ash who conducted the wine tasting. Such a knowledgeable and engaging fellow who really understands his wines. We were served a white, a rose and two reds along with some cheese and olives which were to be paired at different times with specific wines. I can honestly say that the hour we spent with Ash at Cavavin has opened our eyes. Usually guilty of buying 'supermarket' wine we will now be more discerning in the future. Also, the selection of wines, a lot at very reasonable prices, was very impressive so we will definitely be going back to buy wines from Ash. I can't recommend this delightful...

Great present of a wine tasting session allowed us to discover Cavavin of which we had drove Past numerous times and didn't realise it was there. We were greeted by a charming young man called Harris. (hope that's correct) Who talked us through a selection of their fine wines. We tried four of them and chatted about their heritage. Along with some delicious cheeses and super olives. A little too early in the morning for us at 11am, but that was our choice and nothing to eat the wine went to my head. But Wow!! What a discovery this is. Some of the most amazing wines, fantastic choice for all wine fanatics and a really pleasant atmosphere. Just would benefit from an odd wine tasting night where people could socialise and taste the array of fine wines... Well done and goid luck for the future Bryan and Jeanette
