The third annual Wine Garden of England Summer Celebration will be held by the lake at Chilham Castle, not far from Canterbury. You'll be able to meet the producers and taste the wines from:
Balfour
Biddenden
Chapel Down
Gusbourne
Simpsons
Squerryes
Westwell
Yotes Court
There will also be a chance to meet the team at Domaine Evremond, who will be gearing up to launch their first sparkling wine in partnership with Taittinger. (NB: the wine will not be available to taste just yet)
Chilham Castle is a 17th Century private residence set amongst stunning grounds within walking distance from Chilham railway station. There is a small vineyard, planted by the team at Domaine Evremond, and an opportunity to hear about their plans during a vineyard tour.
All-day ticket holders will be given a Wine Garden of England tasting glass and tote bag, together with a book of tasting vouchers. Each voucher gets you a tasting from one producer, so that you can make your way around all of them, sampling the diversity of the group. Further glasses and bottles can be purchased from the central bar, which is also surrounded by a selection of local food producers. If you buy an all-day ticket, this will allow you access to our after party from 6pm - 9pm where you can enjoy more wine from the bar, choose food from the many food producers, and listen to our live band.
If you are interested in just coming for the after party, an evening ticket is available to purchase. The party does not include the free tasting vouchers, glass or tote. There will be a pay bar and a choice of food vendors.
