English Wine Week takes place annually in June – a key time for the vineyards when buds turn into flowers and grapes begin to form. This year’s English Wine Week is from 15th-23rd June.
To celebrate English Wine Week, not only have we launched Wildshark Vineyards Rosé in our pubs, we’re holding a competition on Instagram launching on 15th June to win a bottle of both Wildshark Vineyard‘s Rosé and Bacchus wines. Check it out here.
We’ll also be holding tasting of our wines in some of our pubs – keep your eyes peeled for more information on this very soon.
Supporting local vineyards really important and English vineyards are producing some of the best wines in the world! Take a look below at some of our top pics!
