Welcome to our website
If you are mildly obsessive about your wine, enjoy drinking it, and learning about new varieties from around the world, and how they are made, then you will enjoy our Club, its monthly tastings, events, and all it has to offer.
Importantly, our programme of monthly tastings and presentations are led by wine trade professionals and WSET qualified wine educators. The common bond is their love of all things wine, an impressive knowledge of wine and wine making – and an ability to inform, entertain and amuse!
However, The Club is not all about serious learning. There is most definitely a social side – meetings are friendly, inclusive and informal. New friendships are made and old established ones maintained.
Added to all this is the ambience of Bookham’s Grade II listed Old Barn Hall where we meet. It maybe over 100 years old but it has been superbly maintained and modernised, providing first class facilities, including a full screen and projection set-up, and a modern kitchen with a wine cooler – perfect for our needs!

Our next event
Rioja – classic reds and much more
Monday 9th February at 8pm
Rioja is one of the most well-known of wine regions, with a long history and a reputation for quality, yet it never stands still. At this tasting, Heather Dougherty, a Certified Rioja Educator, will guide us through a tasting encompassing the region’s traditional oak-aged Reservas, as well as newer developments, including white wine from a newly recovered ancient variety, rosado, and a single vineyard wine.
To learn more about the Club’s history, its past presentations and how it is promoting the world of wine, and bringing so many aspects of it to our members, we invite you to take a tour around our website. But, if this still leaves your questions unanswered, please contact the Club through our Membership Secretary: membership@bookhamwineclub.org.uk
