Annual Dinner - Savile Club

Friday 2 May 2025

 

 

You are invited to the Club's Annual Dinner which promises to be a wine spectacular.  This is a great opportunity to enjoy magnificent wines partnered with fine fare, in really convivial company..

 

 

We are making a welcome return to the Savile Club, housed in an elegant 1720's property in the heart of Mayfair.  Founded in 1868 (one century before the Red Herring Wine Club), the Savile has been the club for leading writers and artists including Robert Louis Stevenson, Thomas Hardy, H G Wells and W B Yeats.

The wines are exceptional including such stars as Perrier-Jouet Belle Epoque 1995 for our Champagne aperitif, Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru 2002 white burgubdy, Chateau La Lagune 1989 and magnificent Croft 1977 vintage port.  (Details of the wines provided for our Dinner can be found here).

The Savile has made its Ballroom exclusively available for our dinner.  The price is kept deliberately low to thank loyal members.  Therefore, tickets are restricted;  ONE guest per member.  Places are likely to go within 72 hours; please apply NOW to not be dissapointed.
