Wine Tasting Cambridge - Welcome to Cambridgeshire Wine School

There's a lot on offer at Cambridgeshire Wine School - Wine Courses and evening Wine Tastings for everyone (no previous experience necessary). Our Saturday Introductions with Lunch are very popular (a leisurely tasting of 13 delicious wines incl. 2-course meal & Champagne) and we run a wide range of Single Evening Wine Tastings. 

You can have a FREE NIGHT of Wine Tasting if you book our flexible 8-week World of Wine Tour (1 eve/week for 8 weeks)! This covers every major wine producing area of the world and if you can't make a particular session we credit you so you can catch it again when we repeat it. 

"No question was too silly - just lots of useful information presented in a fun and interesting way. We thoroughly recommend." (Jean, May 2013).

NEW! A Saturday France vs New World in 1 day plus Champagne & Sparkling Wine evenings. And our Gift Vouchers never expire - they are great for birthdays and anniversaries! 

We do not sell wine - we are your independent guides! We run Wine Tastings and Wine Courses for your enjoyment only (we buy our wines from local wine merchants and supermarkets). We now rank No.1 for Cambridge Activities on Tripadvisor! To see all the courses running in Cambridge over the next  few months just click here.
