Knutsford Wine Fair to Debut This November
The inaugural Knutsford Wine Fair takes place on Sunday 23 November 2025 at Knutsford Market Hall, bringing independent winemakers and standout seasonal food together under one roof. Designed to make great wine relaxed, fun and accessible, the event will celebrate unique producers and modern wine culture, welcoming everyone from curious first timers to seasoned wine lovers.
Curated by Linden Stores co-owners Laura Christie and Chris Boustead, the duo behind Knutsford’s celebrated neighbourhood restaurant, the Knutsford Wine Fair will feature over 20 wines from pioneering producers across the UK and Europe. Guests can meet the winemakers, taste their wines and enjoy seasonal sharing plates from Linden Stores, served throughout the day.
The event is designed to be relaxed, social and approachable, offering guests the chance to explore the world of wine in a way that feels fresh and fun. Each £30 ticket includes tastings of over 20 wines and a goodie bag and the opportunity to buy bottles or order cases for later collection, perfect for stocking up ahead of the festive season.
Laura Christie comments:
“Wine has always been central to what we do at Linden Stores, from the relationships we’ve built with producers to the way we share those wines with our guests, the Knutsford Wine Fair is a chance to take that passion beyond the restaurant. We’ve designed it to be approachable for everyone, from wine lovers to those just starting to explore, a relaxed, friendly day to taste, discover and enjoy.”
