As we head towards the summer solstice we're not donning druid attire here at Yapp HQ but preparing for our habitual Summer Wine Tasting and Sale, and getting out on the road.

If you are around Wiltshire this weekend, there's our Summer Wine Tasting and Sale to tempt you here in Mere on Saturday 20th June - 9.30am to 5.00pm - where we've selected over 30 wines to taste. We'll be playing host again to our good friends from Godminster (http://www.godminster.com/) and the best smokery by a country mile (http://www.chesilsmokery.com/)

Summer Wine Tasting and Sale
Saturday 20th June 2015, 9.30am - 5.00pm.
The Old Brewery, Water Street, Mere, Wiltshire BA12 6DY

 

For those of you with a horticulture bent and a penchant for great food and wine we'll also be setting up shop at Winston Churchill's old family home at Blenheim Palace for 3 days - Friday 19th June to Sunday 21st (http://www.blenheimflowershow.co.uk) – where we're hoping to get a few 'selfies' with the legendary Mary Berry, but we'll have to see how it goes on the day!

You could of course plan an road trip and see us at both events but we appreciate that's a big ask in one weekend, so we hope to see you either here in Mere or in the Oxfordshire Marque signposted the Festival of Food and Drink in Blenhiem – where you can taste some great summer wines and have a stab at winning one of our new magnums of Côtes du Luberon: Château la Canorgue Rosé 2014.

By-the-by, should you want to try some of Winston Churchill's favourite wine and won't be travelling this weekend, we have some for sale here:
