Meet the producer at Kerry Vale Vineyard during English Wine Week

Kerry Vale Vineyard is hosting a ‘Meet the producer’ event to celebrate English Wine Week.
 
The English border vineyard, located near Montgomery, will open its doors between 10am and 4pm from June 22-25.  Local residents and customers from further afield will be invited to the vineyard to ‘Meet the producer’ and sample the vineyard’s award winning wine.
 
English Wine Week is a national campaign to promote English wines and vineyards between June 19-27.

​Kerry Vale Vineyard owner Russell Cooke said: “By inviting people to explore the vineyard, we hope they will gain an understanding of the wine growing process and gain a deeper appreciation for the world of wine.

​“We love to share the vineyard with our guests and, during their visit, they will be welcome to explore at leisure, take in the stunning countryside and experience the beautiful sense of space and tranquillity that the vineyard offers. We're confident they will love it like we do!.”

Visitors will be welcomed with a free self-guided tour and invited to try three wines in the café for just £5 per person. Customers must be 18 or older to sample the wine. The event also provides an opportunity to meet the vineyard experts who will be on hand to take questions.
 
Once part of the ancient Roman site of Pentreheyling Fort, the vineyard has an interesting past which is revealed on information boards.
 
The vineyard makes a selection of white, rose and red still and sparkling wines, wich have won a host of national and international awards.
​
“Our meet the producer week aims to not only educate people about English wine, but also to encourage them to buy locally. This is a philosophy we promote in our vineyard café with our fresh homemade produce.”
 
Buying local is better for the planet and supports the local economy. As a extra bonus, Kerry Vale Vineyard is offering free delivery within a 10-mile radius with no minimum order during English Wine Week.
 
Kerry Vale Vineyard is a member of MWT Cymru, which represent more than 600 tourism and hospitality businesses across Powys, Ceredigion and the Meirionnydd region of Gwynedd.
