Thrilled to have our new Sussex Rosé at Two Tails Taproom

**NEW SUPPLIER ALERT**

We're delighted to tell you we've teamed up with another wonderful Sussex supplier - Winklestone Vineyard , a small, family-run, organic vineyard, nestled in the village of Fairwarp in the heart of Ashdown Forest.

We've secured some bottles of their delicious 2024 organic rosé, which you can enjoy nicely chilled at our next pop-up, which starts next Friday.

Made from 50% organic bacchus, 25% organic pinot noir and 25% organic pinot meunier, it's a light, dry, crisp and refreshing rosé with subtle hints of red fruit.

We will be at the Fairwarp Village Fete this Saturday 12:30-16:00!

It's going to be a lovely day, we have plenty of ice and are making spritzers to serve ☀️ 🧊

Come and say hello and try our new organic Sussex rosé.

There are plenty of other activities to enjoy throughout the day with your glass (or two) of wine 🥂🌀

See you there! 😎💚

We've had a busy few weeks strimming, mowing, processing some fallen down trees and most importantly, tasting some new blends for our 2024 vintage 🌷

The good news is our new wines taste excellent! This is a true testament to the hard work we put in surviving the weather last year producing a small amount of high-quality clean fruit.

In other exciting news we will be at market this Sunday in the sunshine from 12-3pm 🌞🍺 Come down and say hi and try our organic wine
