New Wines with Holly
Our lovely wine guru friend Holly Plumeridge, from Alliance Wine, will be cracking open a line-up of new wines that we’ve sourced for our shelves from her portfolio. One of the many things we love about Holly is her ability to transport you straight to the heart of the vineyard from single sip of wine, with her enviable knowledge of the producers and the bottles she represents.
Come along, grab a glass, have a taste, no prior knowledge is required – simply enjoy sampling great indie wine from impressive producers.

Mark Perna
Taste of Italy with ‘guests’
There are not many people more passionate about great indie wines than our friend Mark Perna, from Astrum Wine Cellars, who has an impeccable palate and enviable pairing suggestions.
So, it’ll be no surprise to read that he’s opening up some of our favourite Italian wines from our shelves – sourced from his portfolio – and letting the country of great food and wine seduce you from the glass. There will be a handful of ‘guest’ wines from other countries, but this really is a Taste of Italy affair.
As ever, come along, grab a glass, have a taste, no prior knowledge is required – simply enjoy sampling great indie wine from impressive producers.

Festive Reds with Sadie
It’s the most wonderful time of the year, and like every other year – apart from 2020 (but we’re not mentioning that) – we’re opening up a selection of ‘Festive Reds’ that’ll see you through the season of sparkle.
Sadie will be at the helm of the table and if you can get her to stop talking about Christmas food, she’ll delight you with the details of the carefully selected line-up of wines we’ve put together for this Christmas, which, quite frankly, deserves to be a good one this year!
You know the drill, come along, grab a glass, have a taste, no prior knowledge is required – simply enjoy sampling great indie wine from impressive producers.
Fri 10th Dec 3PM-6PM
F is for Food
It’s also for Fiona McLaughlin, from Berkmann Wine Cellars, who is a self-confessed foodie and fountain of knowledge when it comes to wine. It just so happens that some of our favourite, newly sourced wines from the past couple of months come from Fiona’s portfolio and are the kind of wines that always get you talking food.
So, what better month to talk food and wine than the most indulgent month of the year. As we always say, come along, grab a glass, have a taste, no prior knowledge is required – simply enjoy sampling great indie wine from impressive producers.

Festive Whites with Tony Schendel
The only other man we look forward to seeing as much as Santa at Christmas is Tony Schendel, from Hayward Bros, who is our longest-serving supplier since the conception of Vineyards in 2005.
Though, we’re not asking him to come down the chimney, he’ll be on the mezzanine opening up sleigh full of Festive Whites to tickle your fancy and help you decide what you’re drinking over the holidays. From classic White Burgundy to aromatic whites from the new world, he’s got something for everybody – if you’re on the nice list that is!
