Perfect Match Dinner

Homage to the Tours - A Food and Wine trip around Europe and California

The Old Deanery, Ripon, Friday, May 1st 7.00pm for 7.30pm
 

The first Tour of Yorkshire cycle race takes place in 2015 and there are two reasons to celebrate.  One is to recall the heady days of July 2014 when the Tour de France fizzed through the highways and byways of North, West and South Yorkshire.  The second is to enjoy the food and wine from the major cycling events of Europe and North America - The Tour de France, Giro D'Italia, Vuelta Espana, Tour of California...and the Tour of Yorkshire. Follow in the footsteps of one of cycling's greats, five time yellow jersey winner, Bernard Hainault, and, just as he did last year, enjoy the delicious food and wines; and warm hospitality of the Old Deanery.

The proposed menu and wine details are shown below.

The action all takes place at the Old Deanery, Ripon on Friday, May 1st,  7.00 pm for 7.30pm.  This is a Perfect Match event where each course will be accompanied by two wines.  Tickets are £49.50 per person and can be purchased from the Winearray website or by contacting The Old Deanery directly.

Very generous room rates for this event - £75/double room and £65/single room, including breakfast.  Please contact The Old Deanery directly to make your room reservation.
