Wickham Estate

Wickham Estate

A Hampshire vineyard between the Meon Valley and Wickham, run as a wedding and functions venue, with wine tasting and dinner evenings in its Old Winery.

Three Choirs bought Wickham Estate in 2014 and developed the grounds into a wedding and private-functions venue. Samantha, who had managed the site for seven years, took over the vineyard as its owner in January 2022. The Old Winery, which once housed the barrels and winemaking equipment, is a function room with its own bar and dance floor. It is hired together with the Courtyard, which looks out over the floodlit vineyard. An on-site house was added in 2019 for wedding parties to stay in.

Tastings are ticketed evenings on set dates in the Old Winery: the owner talks through a flight of five wines with canapés, then a two-course dinner. Tables seat six to ten. Private group tastings are arranged by enquiry. The site describes no walk-in tasting.
