As the ballroom doors swung open at the DoubleTree by Hilton in Kuala Lumpur, a wave of anticipation swept through the crowd.

It was Sunday (22 September), and the much-awaited wine-tasting event hosted by Hank’s was about to begin.

With its promise of over 200 different wine labels, the event transformed a typical Sunday afternoon into a sensory escapade.

Participants were greeted with a curated wine flight, each offering a unique journey through the vineyards.

No Switching: Embrace the Element of Surprise

The rules were simple: no switching flights, just savouring the experience.

This added an element of surprise and discovery, as each sip revealed the intricate craftsmanship behind every bottle.

The challenge was to rank the top five wines, a task that proved both delightful and daunting given the stellar ‘five-star’ selections.

As glasses clinked and conversations flowed, attendees scanned QR codes to vote for their favourite wines, vying for a chance to win attractive prizes if their selections matched those of the sommeliers from the Sommelier Association of Malaysia (SOMLAY).

A Celebration of Camaraderie and Discovery

The air was thick with camaraderie and the shared joy of exploration, punctuated by the occasional exclamation of a newfound favourite.

Hank’s, renowned for its unparalleled selection of wines and spirits, proved why it is the go-to destination for connoisseurs and casual enthusiasts in Malaysia.

Their commitment to quality and variety is unmatched, offering everything from rare vintages to contemporary blends.

Whether you’re seeking a robust red to pair with a hearty meal or a crisp white for a sunny afternoon, Hank’s has you covered.

Their events are more than just tastings; they are journeys into the heart of winemaking, inviting patrons to taste, understand and appreciate the art behind each label.

As the clock neared 5 PM, the event drew to a close, but the memories lingered.

Guests left with exclusive door gifts, including a bottle of wine – a token of appreciation from Hank’s for their participation.
