About this event
Sustainability and social impact are part of all decisions made by The Wine Society. The Society’s Pioneers are wines from producers who think the same way we do and are taking extra steps to do even more. Come and taste the difference.
In April this year we launched The Society’s Pioneers, a collection that celebrates wines from producers who go the extra mile, put their heart and soul into their craft and lead the future of wine. The process behind selecting The Society’s Pioneers is rigorous - only the producers who go above and beyond in achieving our highest standards of care for their land, wildlife and people make the grade. Find out more about The Society's Pioneers by clicking here.
We’re thrilled to bring together this selection of Pioneers that demonstrates and explores the breadth of wines on offer from those who care.
These events are all about ensuring our members get to taste as many of our wines as possible. They vary in size and theme, but all provide a relaxed environment for our members to guide their own tasting with a glass and booklet provided on arrival. Whether you want to discover something new, reconnect with an old favourite or try a wine you’d never ordinarily approach, then our walkaround tastings could be for you.
