An outstanding wine experience

Purbrooktricky, May 2026

This was a great trip. Vicky gave us a lot of information about the wines of the area, and that was backed up by the people from the wineries themselves. I can't recommend it highly enough. Vicky deserves a bonus .. best guide we have had in ages
