Wine Tasting Experiences & Tours
Fall in love with the fruitful story of wine with a wine tasting and tours experience. With the oldest fermented beverage originating from China some 9,000 years ago, wine has now progressed into something a little more alluring, with wondrous flavours from all over the world! Become a wine connoisseur and benefit from luscious flavours with an afternoon of wine discovery. Stroll through the vineyard at Redhill Farm Estate, see how grapes are grown at Hidden Spring Vineyard or savour award-winning wines in the heart of Kent’s countryside. From grape to glass, learn all about harvesting and crushing the grapes, right through to the aging and bottling process. Sample some of the good stuff with a swirl, smell and taste, before giving your final evaluation. You’re even welcome to take a bottle home with you. After all, life’s too short to drink bad wine.

Wine Tasting Experience FAQs
A wine tasting is usually a standalone session focused on sampling a curated selection of wines, often guided by an expert who talks through flavour, region and style. A vineyard tour is a fuller experience that includes walking the vines, learning about the growing and winemaking process, and typically ends with a tasting of the vineyard's own wines. If you want a longer day out rather than just an hour of sampling, the tour format usually offers more.
No prior knowledge is expected. Most tastings and tours are designed for beginners as much as enthusiasts, with the host explaining tasting technique, terminology and what to look for as you go. It's as much about learning as it is about drinking.
This varies by experience and isn't standard across the board, so it's worth checking the specific product page for the number of wines included. Some sessions focus on a small, carefully chosen flight, while others cover a broader range across different styles and regions.
Both formats exist. Some experiences are purely about the wine, while others pair tasting with food, such as a cheese board, a light lunch, or even a chocolate pairing. If you'd like a fuller afternoon out rather than just sampling, look for listings that mention food alongside the tasting.
This depends on the venue and format. Some experiences are based at a single site you travel to and from yourself, while others, such as multi-stop tours, include transport between locations as part of the package. If you're planning to drink and don't want to worry about driving, it's worth checking this in advance.
