Gourmet Nights and Wine Dinners

Haddington East Lothian Edinburgh Scotland

What better way to enjoy an evening with friends than at the Maitlandfield House Hotel enjoying wines from Portugal. This evening is designed for both the wine novice and connoisseur and promises to be both educational and fun and is designed to be all the wine lover could desire.

I cannot think of a more exiting location for this event combining food and wine together than the historic Maitlandfield House Hotel in the picturesque town of Haddington, East Lothian. The area is still today called the “Bread Basket of Scotland” because of the variety of produce available from organic vegetables to tasty  strawberries and ice cream. You can opt for some fresh trout and locally smoked salmon by David Pate at Dunbar Smokehouse. Meat treats include local Garleton beef, lamb and pork and more unconventional meats such as venison, ostrich and wild boar. There’s also a good selection of regional drinks including Belhaven Beer, Glenkinchie Malt and Brammle liqueur.

Our guests will arrive for drinks at 7.00pm giving them a chance to meet fellow friends, business colleagues or potential clients. Exchange some tasting notes from previous wine events or just chat about the weather. At approximately 7.30pm we are taken into the privacy of the comfortable Sixteen King's dining room for the four course, wine matched, dinner.  Nico De Freitas and his head chef plan the food and the wines that we shall enjoy at this event.
