On Wednesdays We Drink Rosé: The English Roses of English Rosé

Sip, swirl and celebrate summer vibes at our ENGLISH Rosé tasting event! From blush to bold, we’re pouring a curated lineup of ENGLISH Rosé wines that prove pink is more than just pretty - it’s packed with personality! Discover your new favourite Rosé and snack on perfectly paired local produce nibbles whilst soaking in the Rosé glow. Whether you’re a Rosé rookie or a pink drink pro, this is your kind of event!

Please note that some of the BEST English Rosés are mostly dry so if White Zinfandel is your bag, these wines may not be for you, but if you’re willing to expand your horizons to some fantastic, elegant, dry but also fruity winners of ENGLAND, you’re in the right place!

Wine tasting is strictly 18+ and we reserve the right to request photographic identification in accordance with our Challenge 25 policy. No dogs or pets allowed other than assistance pets with prior approval.

What to expect:

We will guide you through 6 x 50ml pours of our stunning selection of carefully sourced English still wines.

A selection of simple nibbles will be provided so please let us know beforehand if you have any dietary requirements.

We will open our English Wine Specialist shop at the end of the tasting for anyone wishing to purchase wines enjoyed on the evening.

Please contact us directly for bookings of more than 6 people, or private groups.

Taxis & transport: If you need to organise transportation to and from our Estate, please pre-book your taxis.

This may be difficult for those with walking difficulties. The vineyard also has uneven surfaces so please ensure you wear appropriate footwear!

Whilst our shop and tasting rooms are all on one level, please note that our old Coach House building that we are situated in, does have steps between rooms, and the car park, courtyard area contains a slightly uneven surface.
