Rosé isn’t just for sunny afternoons, and cheese deserves far more than a place on the end of the meal.
Join us at The Wellington for Rosé & Rind, an intimate guided tasting experience designed to showcase just how beautifully artisan British cheeses and premium rosé wines can work together.
Whether you’re a devoted wine enthusiast, a passionate cheese lover or simply looking for a unique evening out, Rosé & Rind offers the opportunity to discover new flavours, surprising pairings and the craftsmanship behind some of Britain’s finest producers.
Priced at £30 per person, the evening includes:
The tasting has been carefully curated to progress from the lightest and freshest flavours through to richer, more complex combinations, allowing you to experience just how versatile rosé can be.
Your evening begins with Pave Cobble, a beautifully delicate sheep’s milk cheese with a fresh, lactic character, paired with a crisp Provence-style Rosé that enhances its clean, elegant flavours.
Next, you’ll enjoy Baron Bigod, one of Britain’s most celebrated Brie-style cheeses, made from raw cow’s milk and matched with a vibrant English Still Rosé. Together, they create a wonderfully balanced pairing that’s creamy, fresh and full of character.
The third course introduces Rachel, a mellow goat’s cheese with sweet, nutty notes, served alongside a deeper, fruit-forward rosé whose richness complements the cheese perfectly.
To finish, you’ll taste the outstanding Sparkenhoe Red Leicester, a traditionally clothbound farmhouse cheese with remarkable depth and complexity. It’s paired with a British Sparkling Rosé—a combination that many guests find becomes the highlight of the evening. If you’d like to linger over this final pairing, you’ll also have the opportunity to enjoy a full glass of the sparkling rosé for £8.
Rosé & Rind isn’t about memorising tasting notes or being a wine expert—it’s about discovering new favourites, sharing good conversation and enjoying exceptional produce in a relaxed, welcoming setting.
Your tasting guide is yours to keep, giving you the chance to jot down your thoughts, rate each pairing and revisit your favourites long after the evening has finished.
Whether you’re planning a date night, celebrating with friends or simply looking for something a little different, Rosé & Rind promises an evening of fantastic food, beautiful wines and plenty of conversation.
Spaces are limited to keep the experience intimate and interactive.
