OUR MEMBERS SAY…
“Just received my latest batch of wonderful Motley Cru wines from your Wine Club - a very BIG thank you, always such a treat to unpack the box! Even more exciting because I was able to be part of last year’s harvest and help pick some of the grapes - what’s not to love, amazing hand-harvested English wines that are local too!
Thank you also for inviting us to taste the new season’s wines at Kenton - we thoroughly enjoyed the evening (Chef Louis and team’s wine-matched canapés were AMAZING!) - I think my particular favourite is the Flying Circus Blanc de Noirs - it really does taste biscuity!
Ben’s enthusiasm is infectious - he explains the processes and flavours in an audience-appropriate way, which is both engaging and charming (don’t apologise for loving your job, Ben!). I’ve referred back to the tasting/pairing notes on several occasions when choosing a bottle.
Looking forward to sitting in the glorious Kenton courtyard for a glass of something very soon - this weather is perfect for a Pigéage rosé!
PS don’t tell anyone else about the Wine Club - we don’t want to share!”

If you are a “Cru Collector” member, you’ll receive 1 bottle every month and throughout the year, you’ll be able to taste the entire range of wines we offer.
