A Vineyard Walk & Dinner
From 3pm Saturday August 3
On Saturday August 3, we're thrilled to invite you to join us again at the edge of the Romney Marshes for a very special dinner with our friends Ham Street Wines alongside their vines.
Lucie & Jules at Ham Street represent so much of what excites us when it comes to the homegrown community of growers in the UK. Deep attention to detail with their organic and biodynamic viticulture, a genuine commitment to improving the health of their land, and joyful, detailed wines, full of life.
A long, lazy afternoon in the vines celebrating wine and food. You'll arrive at 3:30 for a leisurely stroll through the vines with Lucie & Jules to learn more about what they do, before we sit together in the early-evening sun for glasses of their pet-nat and snacks, followed by three courses and wines made from the surrounding fruit, served by the jug and bottle.
Being early August the site will be alive with cover crops, wildflowers, and bunches of grapes racing along to maturity, a truly celebratory environment and one of the joys of the growing season. You can expect a menu that enjoys the spoils of summer, bright, easy dishes to play off the vibrant wines of Lucie & Jules.
Tickets are £60 and include a welcome drink, snacks and three courses.
We do hope you can join us for what promises to be a wonderful summer's evening in the countryside.
Saturday Wine Workshops
Our Wine Workshops are an intimate and informal way for a small number of us to gather on a Saturday afternoon to look a little deeper at the wines that inspire us most, the history behind them, and why the world of natural wine has such significance for us.
The workshops are led by our good friend and wine educator Paris Barghchi.
Paris has a hospitality career that spans almost two decades from humble country pub to Michelin starred fine dining. However, it is the small independent caves and cafes celebrating wholesome produce and interesting, lovingly crafted beverages that inspires her. Drawn to wine by the stories, Paris is keenly pursuing her studies further, taking on vineyard work in the UK, and soon to be turning her hand at winemaking.
We can think of few better for you to be taking this journey into wine with!
Important Details:
- Spaces are limited to 12 per workshop
- 5 wines will be tasted at each workshop
