D&D celebrates Valentine's with wine and film events across its restaurants
London's innovative restaurant group, D&D, has come up with an imaginative way to help celebrate wine in its outlets in the build up to Valentine's Day with a special Love Wine and Film promotion.
If you happen to go in to any one of D&D's in London then you can expect to be whisked off on a cinematic journey as sommeliers try and entice you with wines they love, which are also connected in some way to the cinema.
Love wine...then you must love film say D&D restaurants
The initiative, which runs from February 9 to March 2, will also see special screenings of wine related film classics such as Sideways, Bottleshock and the Boys. There will also be film based wine tastings to offer something a little different from its normal wine offer at D&D and the chance to try wines made by famous film stars and directors like Sam Neill's Two Paddocks and Francis Ford Coppola.
The Godfather's wines will be showcased at D&D's Avenue, Quaglino's and Butler's Wharf Chophouse with a special tasting at Avenue on February 18. Plateau in Canary Wharf will be holding a Two Paddocks tasting on February 16.

The New Street Wine Shop will be putting on a number of films and selected wines.
Orrery in Marylebone, will be looking back at the role cinema has had in influencing wine trends in a tasting on February 25 to see how iconic movie scenes have changed what we put in our glass.
But the film link up is the latest in a series of promotions designed by D&D to give their restaurants teams and sommeliers the chance to share their individual passions and talk about wine in a more relaxed way, said James Jones D&D's wine marketing manager.
Since 2011, for example, D&D has used the theme "Love Wine" to help celebrate Valentine's Day.
Jones added: "We are always looking to give our guests new and interesting wine experiences; and whether it is discovering a fantastic bottle from an actor they never knew even made wine, being able to taste something that appeared in a famous film they love or discovering an improbable food and wine pairing, Love Wine and Film will really do that.
