This is a group for anyone interested in wine. We are wine lovers rather than wine experts. We meet in the evenings in members' homes every four to six weeks. Our meetings are themed and we taste varied wines accompanied by cheese and nibbles. We also have an annual visit to a nearby vineyard. We work on a budget of £10 - £15 per head to cover food and wine. We are full at present with a short waiting list. If you are interested please contact Tony Cobb.
30th September 2025 - Members of the group enjoying a talk and tasting in the sunshine at Stanlake Winery nr Twyford
June 18, 2024
Twelve members of the group visited the Chilterns Valley Winery and Brewery overlooking the Hambleden Valley, near Henley.
After a tour ofvisiting the vines, the the group were given a guided tour of the production facilities for the wines and beers, followed by a tasting of six wines, three beers and three liqueurs.
The winery was established over 40 years ago. Since the first harvest in 1984, it has produced an increasing range of fine, award-winning English wines to delight the eye and excite the palate. With scores of awards and commendations in blind-tasted national and international competitions, our wines have gained an enviable reputation for quality both here and abroad.
A truly independent brewery, where the Master Brewer at Old Luxters blends only the finest English malted barley (pale, crystal and chocolate malts) to gain the flavour, fullness and depth of colour in our Ales, seasoned with choice English hops for aroma and bitterness.
