Offvine is a Ramsgate-based wine tour operator specialising in guided visits to independent Kent vineyards. The company curates small-group experiences that showcase natural and low‑intervention winemaking, biodynamic practices, and English sparkling production. Tours travel from Ramsgate and nearby Margate to handpicked producers, combining vineyard visits with guided tastings of raw, unfiltered pét‑nats, still wines and classic English sparklings.
Each itinerary focuses on authentic producer stories and sensory learning. Typical experiences include tasting flights—ranging from six degustations on the Natural Wine Tour to more than eight wines on full‑day tours—paired with locally sourced Kentish platters of cheese, charcuterie or plant‑based alternatives. Several trips provide transport for a stress‑free day out, and most tastings include both sparkling and still styles.
Offvine positions itself as a specialist for private groups and celebratory bookings such as hen parties, offering a Hen Wine Tour that combines multiple vineyard stops with curated food pairings. The Offvine Margate option departs from Margate for a full‑day exploration of regional producers, while the English Sparkling Wine Tour highlights méthode traditionnelle and boutique sparklers.
Hosts work with independent winemakers, emphasising transparency about vineyard practices, fermentation and bottling. Booking information, schedules and dietary accommodation details are communicated ahead of each trip. Reviews from past guests note knowledgeable guides and memorable tasting spreads. With a focus on small groups, local produce and natural wines, Offvine offers a structured, educational and convivial way to experience Kent’s emerging wine scene.
Bookings are available throughout the year with flexible group and dietary accommodations as required.
