The Wine Gang is thrilled to announce its first consumer wine event - a Christmas Wine Fair on November 7th 2009 - perfectly timed for the run-up to the festive season.

The mood of the event will be lively and fun, giving you the opportunity to sample distinctive, quality wines from passionate retailers, especially those the Gang themselves have rated as Gold, Silver or Bronze. Over 300 wines will be on show, and other activities on the day will include a series of free 'Wine Walks' conducted by all five of the Gang, and the announcement of the inaugural Wine Gang Gongs.

The Wine Gang is Tim Atkin MW, Tom Cannavan, Anthony Rose, Joanna Simon and Olly Smith. The Gang publishes Britain's most comprehensive monthly survey of wines available in UK retailers at http://www.thewinegang.com/ and their loyal subscribers trust the Gang as Britain's most informed and respected source of wine advice, tips and best buys.
