THE EXPERIENCE
Join us for a one-of-a-kind experience at the historic Nyetimber Estate, in the heart of the South Downs. Enjoy our world-renowned sparkling wines with an exclusive three-course paired menu created by our Executive Chef Mark Brown.
The afternoon commences with a warm welcome at our Estate’s White Barn, followed by a walking tour through the vineyards. Within the 15th-century Medieval Barn, taste a selection of four of our celebrated English sparkling wines; Classic Cuvee Multi-Vintage, Rosé Multi-Vintage, Cuvee Chérie Multi-Vintage, and Blanc de Blancs 2016. Drinks and canapés will follow in the courtyard, before an expertly paired three-course dinner back in the historical Medieval Barn.
The menu will draw on the best seasonal ingredients, showcasing local produce grown on the Estate, expertly paired with our celebrated cuvées, including the pinnacle of our winemaking, 1086 by Nyetimber.
A Nyetimber Brand Ambassador will guide you through the evening, introducing each course of the specially created menu and how it pairs with the accompanying sparkling wine.
At this exclusive dining experience, all attendees will have the opportunity to purchase our wines at cellar door prices. £50 from the price of your ticket is redeemable when you buy a case (of 6 bottles) on the day. Kindly note that we do not accept cash payments, and all purchases must be taken home on the day, as delivery services are unavailable at the Estate.

Mark Brown
Mark began his culinary journey over two decades ago as a private chef, crafting bespoke menus designed to impress at any dinner party.

As Head of Creation, Mark spearheaded the development of progressive and modern menus, showcasing seasonal produce in collaboration with London’s leading chefs, including those from Michelin-starred restaurants.
In 2016, after a number of years in the creative events, Mark returned to his culinary roots, specialising in high-end fine dining. His approach continues to be characterised by the same meticulous attention to detail and creativity that have established his reputation.
