Exciting news this 🍷
Our local vineyards have just launched England’s newest wine region - Rother River Wine - and Rye sits right at its heart!
It gets better...
To mark the launch, the new Rother Wine Triangle Sunday bus route begins on this Sunday 28th June.
3 x vineyards every Sunday, tutored tastings and a charcuterie lunch, departing from Rye station.
It’s the first wine trail in the UK with its own transport!
Follow along this press trip video to get a feel for things - it looks pretty special to us...
“First stop was Oastbrook, then Oxney (the UK’s largest single-estate organic vineyard), and finally Charles Palmer with those views all the way out to the sea. Three vineyards, twelve wines, a proper locally sourced lunch with pairings, and the kind of afternoon that ends with full bags of bottles and a chorus of “when can we do that again?”
..Plus, if you fall for a wine, buy 6+ bottles at any vineyard and they’ll ship them home for free.”
