A CHIPPING Campden wine merchants will toast summer when holding a tasty event in the town.

Bennetts Fine Wines will hold its Summer Tasting at Chipping Campden School from 7pm to 9pm on Saturday, July 5.

People attending will be able to taste the wines that Bennetts gather from all over the world, as well cheese, tapas and other foods from local suppliers.

Like Bennetts' Winter Tasting, the event has been held annually for 18 years and is the highlight of a series of tastings hosted by the merchants throughout the year.

Places, costing £12.50 each, must be booked by visiting Bennetts' High Street shop.

Richard Brooks, Bennetts' general manager, said: "It's to promote what we do.

"People can come around and taste a wide selection of wines from across the world."
