Why a tasting at Tomkat
For those who wish to organize a more complete experience, Tomkat offers private tastings, tailor-made events, and wine-themed experiences.
We can create a personalized proposal based on the number of guests, budget, desired level of depth, and chosen theme.
It is possible to organize tastings dedicated to Champagne, Burgundy, great Italian wines, Tuscany, Piedmont, small producers, older vintages, rare wines, or wine and food pairings.
With nearly 200 selections on Tomkat’s wine list and more than 1,000 selections available through our wine bar, we can offer a wide range of possibilities: from more accessible and convivial experiences to more exclusive occasions featuring important bottles and hard-to-find selections.
What makes us special
Our strength is selection. Every day, we offer carefully chosen wines by the glass, available without the need to book a structured tasting. Guests at Tomkat can sit down, drink well, ask for recommendations, and discover different bottles, often far removed from the more common choices.
Alongside our daily offering, we can create private tastings and bespoke experiences. With nearly 200 selections on Tomkat’s wine list and more than 1,000 selections available through our wine bar, we can create very different journeys: Champagne, Burgundy, Tuscany, Piedmont, great producers, small winemakers, older vintages, rare wines, and pairings with the cuisine.
What makes us special is our approach: knowledgeable, direct, and personal. We do not want to make wine complicated, but to present it in the right way, adapting each experience to our guests, their tastes, and their curiosity.
At Tomkat, wine is not an accessory to dinner: it is the starting point of the experience.
Wine tasting, food pairing, and great bottles
Tastings can be accompanied by dishes from our kitchen: aged cheeses, artisanal cured meats, oysters, small sharing plates, and preparations designed to enhance the wines being tasted.
Each experience is crafted with a simple, direct, and knowledgeable approach. The goal is not to make wine complicated, but to create an enjoyable, engaging, and memorable experience.
