    So that's £18 each for the right to 'taste' a few glasses of wine and a dubious cocktail. Even if you were to consume an entire bottle's worth by yourself, that'd be like paying £18 for a bottle of wine. Sounds like an extortionate rip-off to me.

    Vinopolis is fantastic, its a great day out and well worth the full price so I think£18 is pretty good. You get a chance to learn about wine (or you can just natter to who you are with and get drunk)

    You may be right. If you are then it's a marvellous business model. Money for old rope. Although why do I suspect that they're not exactly packed out every evening? The answer is probably not un-related to their decision to do an Asda 'promotion'.

    I think this might be a better deal if you want to go in December and can go on one of the specified nights- obviously not ideal for a present but if you want to go yourself it might be a better offer.

    Yes, two people for £20 sounds MUCH better than two for £36... thanks! :)
