Wine Club Tasting Night at York Distillery

Join us for our monthly wine club, held on a Thursday each month at 7pm - a relaxed, social evening built around great wine, good conversation and learning something new (without any of the snobbery).

Each month brings a fresh theme, from Off the Beaten Track (discovering lesser-known gems), to Exploring Prosecco (there’s more to it than meets the eye!), to How to Buy Supermarket Wine Like a Ninja - giving you the confidence to choose better wines wherever you are.

Hosted by wine expert Emma (aka @wineladyemma), these sessions are designed to be fun, approachable and genuinely useful. It’s a chance to ask questions, try wines you wouldn’t normally pick, and build your knowledge in a way that you’ll actually remember - no pressure and definitely no feeling silly.

Whether you’re just getting into wine or already love it and regard yourself a pro, this is your space to explore, learn and meet like-minded people over a great glass (or six).

 Hosted by WSET-qualified drinks expert Emma Moore, in the stylish,  York Distillery at Middleton’s Hotel.

The Venue: York Distillery

The tastings are held in the beautiful York Distillery where York Gin’s tasting and gin-making experiences take place. Set inside the just-opened York Distillery, this venue blends historic charm with a contemporary, speakeasy-style vibe. Think ambient lighting, exposed brick, and hidden-away bar energy – a perfect setting for a playful yet refined evening out. Whether you’re a wine aficionado or a crisp connoisseur, you’ll feel right at home.
Discover Wine Like Never Before

Join us for a relaxed, informative, and seriously enjoyable evening of wine tasting with expert host Emma Moore – aka The Wine Lady. Whether you're a total novice or a wine lover looking to expand your knowledge, this is an event designed to entertain and educate in equal measure.
Tastings are hosted in our beautiful new York Distillery - find us off Skeldergate in the grounds of Middleton's Hotel, York.
