WineTime teamed up with Cote Restaurants

TV wine expert Helen McGinn and This Morning fashion presenter Kat Farmer have joined together with Côte restaurants to host their popular WineTime event.

The TV and social media stars are back by very popular demand after the first event in partnership with Côte was a total sell-out.

Hosted by Helen and Kat, the celebration of wine event will be focusing on a ‘Summer of Rosé’. Guests will be treated to an interesting variety of rosé wines which are specially selected by Helen as well as taste Côte’s seasonal specials including the summer rosé dessert which features a rosé granita.

The event was on Tuesday July 18, 7pm, at Côte St Christopher’s Place, just off Oxford Street, London, also featured Helen and Kat wine-pairing to Côte’s innovate menu designed by executive chef Steve Allen who previously worked alongside Gordon Ramsay at his Michelin starred restaurants Claridges and Petrus.

This is the second WineTime event in partnership with Côte restaurants after the first event at London’s Barbican earlier this year was a massive success.

The exclusive evening featured a reception of Crémant, a French sparkling wine, served with classic canapes from Côte’s a la carte menu and then an evening of tasting six French wines from the Cote wine list alongside a seasonal canapé board created especially for the event by Executive Chef, Steve.

The wines, Sparkling Leoube, Riesling, Picpoul, Sancerre Rose, Fleurie and Muscat were specially chosen by Helen and perfectly pair with Côte’s summer menu. 

Helen and Kat lead a Q&A session with guests getting a rare chance to enjoy an evening with the two most knowledgeable and entertaining wine experts in the country.

Helen McGinn, author of The Knackered Mother’s Wine Club, an award-winning wine blog and best-selling wine book, said: “We’re really excited to be working with Côte again for our next WineTime live. The success of the last event was huge so we can’t wait to do it all over again.” 

Kat Farmer, who is also known by her social media handle, DoesMy BumLook40, is a TV fashion stylist, digital first talent and established author added: “This one feels particularly exciting with Côte’s new summer menu including a dessert with rose wine, what could be better!”
