Tanners Wine Merchants has announced a new Wine Trail in celebration of Shrewsbury Food Festival.

Trail tickets are £25 per person and in return customers will receive a Tanners wine glass to keep, a trail booklet and a 100ml glass of wine at five venues across the town. The trail can be completed in any order over the weekend, and at each of the five venues, you can choose between two different wines. The booklet will contain vouchers which can be swapped for the glass of wine at each venue.

It will be the first time that Tanners has run a wine trail around Shrewsbury. Although it is a fringe event for Shrewsbury Food Festival, you don’t need tickets to the festival to take part.

Shrewsbury Food Festival is taking place at the Quarry on 27-28 June. The festival hosts chef demonstrations, teach and taste sessions, a kids cookery school, a live music stage, a family entertainment stage, stands from local producers, makers and businesses, a field to fork area, a sports area, free kids’ activities and rides, street food with world cuisine, and a selection of bars featuring independent drinks producers.

Participants do not have to buy tickets to Shrewsbury Food Festival to take part. Tickets can be purchased from the Shrewsbury Food Festival website, and the trail booklet can be collected from Tanners or the festival admissions area. Tickets are £25 per person which includes the trail booklet and vouchers, a Tanners glass, and a 100ml glass of wine at five venues across Shrewsbury.

Tanners will also be running a Mini Tasting Trail from their Shrewsbury cellars on Wyle Cop for customers wanting a more immediate tasting experience. There will be tasting tables with 50ml sample glasses. For £10 you can try 5 different wines and receive a tasty card. Places on the Mini Trail will be limited. The Mini Tasting Trail will run from 11am – 5pm on 27-28 June.
