Launching English Wine Tours

The English Wine Industry has been somewhat overlooked in the not too distant past. Yet English wine from vineyards such as Bookers, on the Bolney Wine Estate and particularly sparkling wine from artisan winemaker Peter Hall at Breaky Bottom has received some great PR lately. Not only are the English vineyards set within some of England finest countryside they are run enthusiastically and passionately by foolhardy winemakers who have made it their life's work to make these wines work.

We thought it was about time to bring attention to this wonderful industry and boy, are we excited!
At English Vine Tours we're giving the public the opportunity to visit some of England's finest vineyards, taste the delights of English wine and enjoy the beauty of the English countryside. Half day, 1 day, 2 day wine tours are available all accompanied by a wine expert from English Vine Tours and driven in a private minibus. We're also offering special day wine tours which will include the tour of a vineyard, wine tasting and lunch before being taken to the horse races for a flutter or perhaps even the opera.

This venture is clearly about promoting the English wine industry but also local produce, local business and our homegrown talent. It's about celebrating England and supporting our local economy when the global one has let us down so badly!
