Garstang

Wine Circle

The Garstang Wine Circle was established in 1970. The total membership has varied between 50 and 70 persons. We would normally expect a monthly attendance between 45/50 people.

Our membership is best described as having a mixed interest in wine. A small proportion is seriously interested in learning all about wine and viticulture; for a few, meetings are largely regarded as a social event and not a specific learning experience. The great majority of members fall between the two extremes. The Wine Circle meets at 7-30 pm on the 3rd Monday of each month, with the exception of July and August. Meetings are held in the Arts Centre, Croston Road, Garstang, Lancashire, PR3 1EB. (See contact page for map and directions)  

We also have additional visits to local Vintners and the occasional overseas trip. The annual subscription for Garstang Wine Circle year 2011-12 (September/August) is £15.00 per member. The meeting fees per member is £6.00, for a tasting evening including a light supper. Visitors are welcome for a maximum of two visits a fee of £8.00 per occasion. A condition of membership of Wine Circle is that Members must join Garstang and District Arts Society, if they are not already a member.
