Stuck for ideas for client entertaining, team building sessions or charity fundraisers? How about a bespoke private wine tasting?

"The purpose of our visit was a little 'team building' exercise for the associate directors and several glasses of good quality wine was a great way to help us relax and enjoy an evening together. I have to say that Mark's knowledge and passion was as refreshing as the drinks themselves and no doubt you will see all of us again in the near future."

Andrew Titterton, Associate Director, AEW Architects, February 2010

"The selection of the wines from hangingditch to accompany the meal was superb. Having two wines with each course, correctly selected, gave a contrast between a drinking wine and an eating wine and showed what a difference food can make to the experience of wine. Mark's passion and exuberance when walking us through the wine was both entertaining and informative. "

Chris Hughes, Director, Dresser Consolidated Ltd, February 2010

"Wine drinking has taken on a whole new interesting dimension since Mark's excellent and enthusiastic presentations."

Andy Clarke Dresser Consolidated Ltd, February 2010

"I cannot recommend Mark Dent and the team at hangingditch highly enough. We used Mark at a client event for 40 in-house lawyers. He was entertaining, informative and hugely passionate about the wine, all of which made for an amazing evening."

Mark Levine, Director, BCL Legal, June 2009

"The evening was made even more enjoyable by your obvious passion and enthusiasm for wine and I was particularly impressed by your ability to engage with and relate this to the audience on the evening."

Ian Stringer, Chairperson Parents Guild, Wellacre Technology and Vocational College, May 2009

"Mark Dent's accessible presentation of each wine had our mixed audience of novices and connoisseurs enthralled from the start. The warm style of his delivery engaged them and created a fantastic atmosphere. He was highly commended by our guests in the days following it and helped provide an extremely special event. "

Lynn Charlton, Chief Executive, After Adoption, February 2009

"No one is more enthusiastic about good wine than Mark and his descriptions of them are vivid, engaging and accurate without ever resorting to cliche or hyperbole. The selection of wines was a cut above what were expecting in terms of quality, value and interest. "

Dr Chris Davies, Chairman, Club Astra Zeneca Wine Society - November 2008

"Mark of hangingditch delivered a superb wine tasting evening tailored to our company's requirements and budget. On the night he wooed the audience with his passion for wines and gave us a huge insight into each wine tasted - leaving us with a gagging thirst for more! "

Samantha Sheehan, Consultant Relations Director, BMI Healthcare, December 2008
