Absolutely brilliant tour and tasting. We discovered Oastbrook by chance as we were camping down the road. America's tour was fabulous! Accompanied by Lora the dog we walked amongst the vines and learnt so much about growing techniques, varieties, the life of a vineyard etc. All questions were welcomed and America's passion amd knowledge was incredible. Tastings with Nick in their beautiful building overlooking the vineyard was excellent. We couldn't resist buying the chardonnay, rose and sparkling rose. The cheeseboard accompaniment was welcome too and again Nicks knowledge and passion for sharing their business was plain to see. Highly recommend
I did not stay on site, I visited for a tour of the vineyard. Beautiful grounds, gorgeous wines, knowledgeable guides.
Had a lovely afternoon at Oastbrook estate. Started with a tour in the vineyard with America who explained how the grapes are lovingly grown with sometimes a bit too much information but it’s lovely to see her passion for the hard work she dies to make the wine .. the second part is a tasting with Nick in the beautiful tasting barn.. overall A very nice afternoon .. America and Nick work so hard to produce a really great assortment of wines.. we went with our adult kids and their partners and they enjoyed it too
Firstly, we stayed in a glamping tent - what a great experience and genuinely the most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept in! Next day we did the vineyard tour which was not only very informative but America made it highly amusing with her various stories. Then on to the wine tasting itself which Nick made equally interesting (oh, and the wine was great too!). Loved it.
The first time we visited we learnt so much about the wonderful owner America & her husband Nick and the wine making process from beginning to end. We explored the grounds, met Loira the super cute dog and tasted some fabulous English wines. The cheese we had along with the wine was delicious and the facilities were top notch. I’d love to spend more time here!
