Wraxall Vineyard trip

In August we went on our first trip as the Frome WI to Wraxall Vineyard near East Pennard.




It was a lovely summer's evening with only the merest threat of rain.



And the most amazing views of the surrounding countryside.



Brian, who owns the vineyard along with his wife Jackie, talked us through the history of the vineyard and it's current incarnation in their care.


We then went on a stroll looking at the vines.







And learning a little bit about viniculture. Geneva double curtain anyone?

We then went inside as the sun set to taste some of the wines.

Our first trip

Roll up, roll up ladies who's up for a tour round a local vineyard and a chance to try their wine?

On August 21st we will be heading over to Wraxall Vineyard on our first ever WI trip. The tour and tasting cost £5 per person and we will book a minibus if you would like (for a small additional charge) so we don't have to drive.

Fun times! If you are interested please get in touch by email WI.frome@gmail.com or via our Facebook page www.facebook.com/FromeWI
