Cheese and wine tasting Evening Friday 8th December
£30.00
We are excited to announce our first cheese and wine tasting evening hosted by the Chet Valley Vineyard team at the winery in Bergh Apton just 8 miles south of Norwich. The evening will entail a tasting of 6 of our delicious wines conducted by the winemaker John Hemmant, accompanied by a matching selection of Mrs Temple’s locally produced cheeses. Doesn’t that sound scrumptious!? Each of Mrs Temple’s cheeses will be tasted with the full range of John’s wines, and a vote will be taken on which ones pair the best. This will all take place in our wine hall upstairs, which commands stunning views of the surrounding vineyard and countryside.
The Skylark bar will also be open throughout the evening, where further wine can be purchased.
The event will run 6.30-9pm, with the bar open until 11pm. Please arrive by the start time. We suggest booking a taxi home.

Lovely afternoon touring and learning about the vineyards and tasting the wines with locally produced nibbles. John is an excellent host and passes on technical information easily. A delightful way to celebrate a 60th birthday with a family group and even better being able to cycle through beautiful lanes in the sun to get there .

We had a wonderful day at Chet Valley! We hired the venue for a family party and enjoyed food and wine on the balcony overlooking the beautiful vineyard scenery. We particularly enjoyed the Horatio Rose Brut which was very refreshing on a hot summers day. We had an excellent tour of the vineyard with the owner, John who was very knowledgeable about not only the vines and the wine but also the local area and all things nature related. He was also very good with the children in our party. I’d highly recommend Chet Valley Wine and also Chet Valley as a venue to hire.

Don't be deceived by the sunny photo below! A friend and I joined a Chet Valley vineyard tour earlier this year, and despite pandemic restrictions and a torrential downpour that even included hail at one point, John managed to pull off an engaging and fun event. It would appear nothing can dampen his enthusiasm. 😉 Chet Valley has a surprisingly wide range of wines of good quality. So if you are in or around Norfolk - or want an excuse to be - I highly recommend paying them a visit. (Warning: you will probably want to purchase a few bottles too...)
