ENGLISH WINE WEEK 2025 IS ALMOST HERE!
English Wine Week 2025 kicks off this Saturday, and there’s no better way to celebrate than by exploring the incredible wines produced right here in England. The Wine School of Cheshire is hosting a special Saturday wine school, featuring guest hosts Simon and Mandy Pryce, founders of Chester’s first-ever commercial vineyard. Attendees will be the first to taste their wines, making this an unmissable event for wine lovers!
Why English Wines Matter
English wines have seen a remarkable rise in popularity, thanks to advancements in viticulture, a warming climate, and the dedication of local winemakers. Once considered a niche product, English wines now compete confidently on the global stage, particularly in the sparkling wine category. The industry contributes significantly to the UK economy, generating £22.6 billion and supporting tourism, exports, and local businesses.
A Unique Wine Experience
Guests at The Wine School of Cheshire’s event will enjoy a diverse lineup of English wines, including Everflyht Brut English Sparkling, unique still wines from across England, and selections from Backford, just outside Chester. With white, rosé, and red wines on offer, this tasting promises to showcase the incredible variety and quality of English winemaking.
If all this is making you wish you were joining us – you can! There are just two spots left, so don’t miss your chance to be part of this exclusive experience.
