As English Wine Week draws to a close for 2015, Amber Valley Wines in conjunction with The English Wine Shop are hosting an evening of English Wine Tasting in the opulent surroundings of Tissington Hall.

The event will be held on Friday 29th May from 7pm to 10pm


In the beautiful stone-flagged Main Hall you'll be welcomed by the present baronet Sir Richard FitzHerbert and treated to a range of delicious canapés, along with six amazing English Wines that will include the very first vintage from Amber Valley Wines.


Tissington Hall was built in 1609 by Francis Fitzherbert & has been in the present incumbent, Sir Richard Fitzherbert's, family for over 400 years. The Baronetcy was conferred on Sir William FitzHerbert in 1784 by George III - Sir Richard is the 9th incumbent of the title. For more information on the hall visit their website at http://www.tissingtonhall.co.uk/

You can purchase tickets online at Eventbrite

Amber Valley Wines was started in 2009 by Duncan Mercer & Barry Lewis - following years of hard work their very first vintage will be available in May 2015 & available at this very event. They set up The English Wine Shop in 2013 to make English Wine widely available & help fund the vineyard work.
