A royal wine flight at Percy & Founders

While you can catch the wedding itself on big screens at the London Wine Week's hub at Flat Iron Square we rather like the wine tribute from this Fitzrovia restaurant which is offering up flight consisting of a London, Welsh and American wine in honour of the happy couple. The flight will feature an Ancre Hill Chardonnay from Wales, a Dierberg Vineyard Chardonnay from Santa Barbara and a Cabot Square Cabernet Sauvignon, from London Cru.

Cost: £5 with festival pass

When: 14-20 May
