Cheese and Wine Tasting London

Cheese and Wine Tasting London

Cheese & Wine have been in a steady relationship since the Romans discovered that fermented grapes enhance mouldy dairy products, rather like Morecombe and Wise. That’s a given. What can be disappointing with cheese and wine experiences is if they’re a token addition to a laminated menu. Not ours, oh no.

Our Experiences are invariably hosted, paired and run by people who actually know what they’re pouring — on a barge on the Paddington basin, at a cheese conveyor belt counter in Camden, or an hour outside London where the wine comes with a view of where it was grown.

21 experiences, mostly under £100, all better than a supermarket wheel of Brie & generic Chardonnay, however it’s wrapped (especially when it’s in a basket).

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the best cheese and wine experience in London?

Deluxe Cheese & Wine Tasting London is the fuller sibling of our classic barge tea — same 96-foot boat on the Paddington basin, but built around proper wine pairings rather than Prosecco alone, for two or four, from £89 (42 reviews). If you want something more counter-side and casual, Cheese Taster for Two at Pick & Cheese in Camden gets you 4 British and Irish cheeses, each paired with its own condiment, and a satisfying glass of vino, from £39.

What are the most unusual cheese experiences on the site?

Cheese Extravaganza for Two in Camden runs like a cheese version of a conveyor-belt sushi bar — grab it before it passes, from £65. For something to really commit to, The Cheese Lovers Walk For Two is a full multi-stop cheese crawl through London Bridge, £398 for the complete version. If you fancy comparing notes on cheese in a different city entirely, Your City Cheese By Cheese runs the same crawl format in Edinburgh as well as London, from £35.

Are there good cheese and wine experiences outside London?

A few of our best are. Wine and Cheese in the Cheddar Valley pairs vineyard visits with cheese and a proper wander through the valley, from £169. Cork and Cheese in Manchester does cheese and wine tasting in the city’s own tasting rooms, from £69. And Kent’s Beautiful Gusbourne Vineyard Sparkling Wine Tasting is a relaxed afternoon through one of Kent’s best sparkling wine producers, from £64.

What if I want wine more than cheese?

Wine and Dine for Two at The Sanctum Soho Hotel leans into the wine list and rooftop views, with fusion small plates alongside, from £79. If you’d rather stay closer to the vineyard itself, several of our wine-tasting days sit in the Outside the M25 and Christmas collections, with cheese served alongside rather than as the main event.

Is there a bigger, occasion-worthy cheese and wine gift?

Yes — for a proper splash-out, our Luxury Under the Stars vineyard overnight and Executive Yacht Overnight Stay on the Sunborn both fold in cheese and wine tasting as part of a longer stay. Full details on both are on our Outside the M25 and Unique & Extraordinary pages.

How do the vouchers work?

All open-dated: eVouchers arrive by email within 15 minutes of purchase, any time of day, or we’ll send a physical pack in the post if you’d rather wrap something. The recipient books their own date at usemygift.indytute.com, and vouchers stay valid for 12 months. Can’t settle on one? A Super Voucher lets them pick from the full site instead, and every experience can be exchanged if your first choice isn’t quite right.
