Harvest is the best time to see the vineyard, with the vines laden with grapes and plenty of activity in preparation for picking. You'll also take a stroll out to the vines and see how the ripening is coming along before enjoying a tutored tasting of 3 of our vintage sparkling wines. Come November, when the harvest is over, we'll move our tastings indoors and include a few appetisers from our small plates menu.
During our tasting experiences, you'll learn about the 300 year old Squerryes estate, the fascinating history of the spirit of our house, and the story of how a disagreement with a French Champagne House led to the Warde family planting vines on the North Downs at the Gateway to the Garden of England.
The Estate Deli is packed full of local produce, either from the Estate or selected from the best producers in Kent. Try some Estate honey and meat, dairy produce from Chiddingstone, locally baked bread and pastries, plus gins and juices from local growers. There's also a well-stocked cheese cabinet, with regional and national cheeses from Neal's Yard, plus many accompaniments of crackers, chutneys and so much more to tempt you. Call in to browse the shelves and take home something new to try today.
As we retreat back indoors to the cosy surroundings of the Winery Restaurant, the change of season brings new depths of flavours with estate-sourced meats, truffles, mushrooms and locally caught fish. Dive into the new season menu and discover your new favourite Squerryes dish.
