WHAT IS WINE TOURISM?
Wine tourism is a term that has come to be associated with the provision of wine tastin and
other experiences at cellar door venues and on winery properties. In Europe it would be referred
to as ‘oenotourism’, ‘enotourism’ or ‘vinitourism’ which refers to people visiting the wineries,
vineyards and the regions in which wine is produced.
One of the earliest de!nitions of wine tourism captured this premise well, claiming wine
tourism as, “Visitation to vineyards, wineries, wine festivals and wine shows for which grape

These thoughtful, one-of-a-kind experiences not only impress but also create lasting memories.
About us
Crafting the Modern English Vineyard Experience.
Today’s wine traveller seeks more than a tasting — they seek connection, discovery, and moments worth remembering. At Estate & Vintage, every journey is designed with a deep understanding .
The new era of Wine Tourism.
An elegant journey through English wine.
New Luxury.
Luxury in wine tourism is no longer about excess — it is about access, discretion, and refinement. Today’s affluent traveller seeks privacy, craftsmanship, and highly personalised service rather than large group tours or overt displays of indulgence. “New luxury” means curated vineyard access, intimate tastings with producers, seamless logistics, and beautifully considered experiences delivered with quiet confidence. At Estate & Vintage, luxury is measured in exclusivity and authenticity — from private cellar moments to tailored itineraries that unfold effortlessly, allowing guests to experience English wine country at its most distinguished.
Authentic Dining.
Wine tourism is inseparable from gastronomy. Today’s visitors seek regionally rooted cuisine that reflects seasonality, provenance, and craftsmanship. Authentic dining experiences — from vineyard lunches to estate-paired tastings — elevate wine from beverage to cultural expression. Estate & Vintage curates culinary moments that celebrate English produce alongside exceptional sparkling wines, ensuring every glass is complemented by flavour, story, and sense of place.
Tours on demand.
Modern travellers expect flexibility. Fixed departure schedules and rigid itineraries are giving way to bespoke, on-demand experiences designed around the guest’s time, tastes, and pace. Wine tourism is increasingly spontaneous — whether a last-minute weekend escape or a carefully crafted private celebration. Estate & Vintage offers adaptable, privately curated vineyard journeys that respond to individual preferences, ensuring that every tour feels intentional, seamless, and entirely personal.
Real Experiences.
Sophisticated travellers are increasingly drawn to sincerity over spectacle. They want to meet the winemaker, hear the family history, and understand the craft behind each bottle. “Real experiences” mean stepping behind the scenes — beyond the tasting room — into the authentic rhythm of vineyard life. Through privileged relationships with England’s leading estates, Estate & Vintage offers access that feels genuine, personal, and far removed from conventional tourism.
Unchartered Destinations.
The world’s most compelling luxury experiences are often found off the beaten path. As established wine regions become saturated, discerning travellers are looking toward emerging destinations that offer exclusivity and discovery. England’s sparkling wine revolution represents precisely this opportunity — a region still unfolding, still intimate, and still refreshingly uncrowded. Estate & Vintage positions guests at the forefront of this movement, inviting them to explore a rising wine destination before it becomes mainstream.
Transformative Travel.
Travel is no longer simply about seeing — it is about becoming. Visitors are seeking immersive, hands-on experiences that deepen their understanding and leave them enriched. In wine tourism, this means walking the vines with growers, learning the art of blending, understanding terroir, and tasting vintages with context and story. Estate & Vintage designs experiences that go beyond observation, inviting guests to engage, learn, and connect — transforming a vineyard visit into an unforgettable journey of discovery. .

WINE EXPERIENCES FOR PRIVATE & CORPORATE CLIENTS.
IN THE WORLD OF BUSINESS, RELATIONSHIPS MATTER.
Whether you’re nurturing a long-standing partnership, celebrating a successful deal, or simply expressing employee appreciation, corporate gifting is a powerful way to build rapport and leave a lasting impression.
But not all gifts are created equal. Some are forgettable, others feel impersonal … and then there’s wine.
Wine has long been associated with celebration, sophistication and generosity. But why does wine stand out in the crowded world of corporate gifting? How do you find the right wine? And how can it elevate your brand and strengthen your business relationships?
For companies looking to move beyond predictable hospitality and create something truly memorable, our curated experiences in England’s celebrated wine country — across the rolling vineyards of Sussex, Kent, and Hampshire — are designed to impress at every level.
We understand that corporate hosting is about more than wine; it’s about strengthening relationships, rewarding excellence, and creating moments that reflect your brand’s standards. From seamless executive transport departing London to private tastings at renowned estates such as Ridgeview Wine Estate and Nyetimber, every detail is handled with precision and discretion. Your guests are welcomed with exclusive access, guided through expertly led sparkling wine tastings, and treated to refined vineyard dining experiences that rival top hospitality venues.
There are no logistical headaches, no waiting in public groups, and no off-the-shelf itineraries — only beautifully orchestrated experiences that feel personal, elevated, and effortless. Whether you are entertaining key clients, rewarding top performers, or hosting senior leadership, we ensure your company is represented with sophistication and polish, leaving your guests impressed not only by England’s exceptional wines, but by the thoughtfulness and calibre of the experience you chose to provide.
Elevated Relationship-Building Experiences.
Wine has a unique ability to create connection. Through guided sparkling masterclasses, blending workshops, and private vineyard dining, you provide immersive experiences that naturally foster conversation and strengthen relationships. Whether rewarding top performers or entertaining key clients, these thoughtfully curated moments turn business hospitality into meaningful, memorable engagement — long after the final glass is poured.
Memorable Shared Milestones
Marking success in a vineyard setting transforms ordinary recognition into a lasting memory. Whether celebrating a record quarter, closing a landmark deal, or honouring senior leadership, curated sparkling wine experiences in the countryside of Hampshire or Sussex create an atmosphere of achievement and appreciation. Private toasts, personalised bottles, and hosted vineyard dinners elevate the occasion beyond a simple reward — they create a shared milestone that strengthens loyalty and reinforces your company’s culture of excellence.
Meaningful Engagement Through Immersive Storytelling
Great wine is rooted in craftsmanship, heritage, and innovation — themes that resonate strongly with ambitious organisations. By hosting private tastings and blending sessions at estates such as Nyetimber, you give guests an interactive experience that sparks conversation, curiosity, and genuine connection. Rather than passive entertainment, your clients and teams engage in a narrative-driven journey through England’s sparkling wine movement, creating a refined yet relaxed environment where relationships deepen naturally and business conversations flow effortlessly.
