Tasting of wines from the Piemonte region of Italy, paired with cheese, at the Reading Biscuit Factory.
Wines and Cheese of North Italy is coming to the Reading Biscuit Factory on Wednesday 5 May 2027, from 7:00pm to 9:00pm. It's a tasting of North Italian wines from the Piemonte region, served with cheese, and it's run by the Thames Valley Wine School.
If you're just in for the one night, it's £47.50. But it's actually the first of a three-week course, Discover the Wine and Cheese of Italy, which pairs three tastings together for £127.50 when you book them as a set — a saving of £15. This particular evening opens the venue's tour of Italy, heading north to Piemonte, with Lombardy and Trentino-Alto-Adige to follow in the subsequent sessions. So if you're keen on the region, it pays to look at the full run rather than just the single date.
The Reading Biscuit Factory itself is a brand-new three-screen cinema, bar, coffee shop, live performance space and community hub in the heart of the town centre, on the Broad Street Mall at the corner of Oxford Road and Queens Walk. It's fully accessible and sets out to be a welcoming place where people can relax, work, meet and create, all under one roof. It's a big, multi-use spot, so you'll find it easy enough to get to on foot from the centre.
