Cabernet of Comedy is a partnership between stand-up comedian Jarred Christmas and vintner Giles Smith Walker. Originally hailing from Christchurch New Zealand, Jarred performs stand-up in comedy clubs and festivals throughout the world, and is a favourite on the corporate circuit.
Like a chilled glass of Pinot Grigio with a light fish starter, a Cab Sav with your Sunday roast lamb, or a glass of bubbly with a smoked salmon blini, Jarred and Giles are a perfect balance. They bring wine, comedy, flavour and fun together to make a perfect evening.
Their show is perfect for intimate corporate dinners, bringing something that is "˜just a bit different‘ to the occasion.
To give clients an idea of what to expect when booking Cabernet of Comedy a sample event schedule would be:
Guests arrive and aperitifs served.
The evening is introduced by Jarred Christmas
Giles Smith-Walker introduces the wines and gives some tips on how to taste
Guests are introduced to 6 wines, with fun and facts
Jarred then entertains guests with a closing stand up comedy set
Cabernet of Comedy is able to create completely bespoke entertainment with wine for events which can be held during a drinks reception, throughout a meal, or even after a meal. Jarred and Giles can accommodate the theme of your event (within reason!) and are always happy to discuss any specific requirements.
