WORLD-RENOWNED wine maker David Hohnen will be raising a glass to wine lovers at The Roebuck
WORLD-RENOWNED wine maker David Hohnen will be raising a glass to wine lovers at The Roebuck in Mobberley next month.
Hohnen was not only one of the pioneers in Western Australia’s Margaret River region, but he also had a big hand in promoting New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc to the world by founding the iconic Cloudy Bay winery in the mid-1980's.
Oliver Haussels, the Roebuck's resident wine guru from Continental & Overseas Wines of Altrincham, will be speaking to Hohnen about some fantastic wines such as 2008 Sauvignon Blanc / Semillon Margaret River and a 2006 Shiraz, Grenache and Mataro.
And punters will be able to sample the wines while enjoying some mouth-watering canapes freshly prepared by the Roebuck's excellent kitchen team.
Tickets for the event, which takes place on October 13, are only £14.95 per person and customers are advised to book early to avoid missing out on the chance to listen to one of the world's finest wine-makers.
The wine evening is the latest in a series of events at the award-winning Roebuck Inn, which also include pie nights, mussels nights and party nights.

About The Roebuck
The Roebuck pub and restaurant is an attractive Grade II listed building, nestled in the Conservation Area of Mobberley between Knutsford and Alderley Edge and is one of the suburbs most favourable and attractive dining locations. The multi award winning venue is owned by Manchester restaurateur Chris Hume who has recently taken over the newly refurbished restaurant and given it a socialable pub feel with a flair of elegance and top quality cuisine.
The venue boasts a sociable dining and drinking area, a picturesque outdoor three tiered garden and a 60 cover upstairs dining area for a more relaxed restaurant atmosphere. This space will also be used for celebratory occasions, private hire, wine tasting and other culinary events.
Locally sourced ingredients are showcased on the new menu which is an array of traditional and contemporary dishes to satisfy different preferences and palates. It's the perfect hub for all meat-lovers with 24 day old prime steak, locally sourced game and fresh organic farmhouse chicken cooked to perfection on a rotisserie. The restaurant is very keen to support and work with local businesses, featuring guest ales from local villages such as Knutsford, Macclesfield and Congleton on their beverage list.
The extensive wine list has a wide selection of new world and old world wines offering an eclectic range of different tastes, textures and grapes from European vineyards. The Prestige Wine menu lists 12 high-end wines from Burgundy and Bordeaux which have been handpicked and selected to give all guests a contemporary and elegant added value dining experience to compliment the a la carte menu, intentionally priced at retail rather than restaurant prices, the aim is to encourage all to experience the finer end of wine drinking!
