Join us to celebrate a major milestone at Lokkelebery Vineyard – the launch of our very first wine:

The Lokkelebery PINK.

Set among the vines, this special four‑hour summer picnic afternoon invites you to relax, explore and taste in true Lokkelebery style. Enjoy generous tastings of our 100% Lokkelebery rosé, live music drifting across the vineyard, and time to settle in with friends on the grass while soaking up the countryside atmosphere.

During the afternoon, guests will have two opportunities to join a guided vineyard tour, led by a WSET-trained host. Learn about the journey from planting our first vines to bottling our inaugural wine, then return to the picnic to enjoy music, wine and the vineyard at your own pace.

A special auction of the first 6 bottles of Lokkelebery PINK will take place during the event, giving you the chance to take home a piece of Hertfordshire history. Each ticket also includes an entry into a raffle to win your own bottle of the PINK to take home, with additional raffle tickets available to purchase on the day.

Our horsebox bar will be open throughout the afternoon, offering food and additional wine to purchase – perfect for building the ultimate vineyard picnic. This will be the first opportunity to buy Lokkelebery PINK; available exclusively direct from the vineyard.

Whether you’re here to toast the launch, discover Lokkelebery for the first time, or simply enjoy a laid‑back summer afternoon in Hertfordshire, this is a celebration not to be missed.
