Savour exquisite fine dining on the iconic Belmond British Pullman as you journey to Balfour Winery in Kent, and enjoy a tutored tasting with wine expert Oz Clarke
Come aboard the luxury private train Belmond British Pullman as
it journeys through the beautiful Kent countryside on a memorable
summer's day in June.
Admire the grandeur of the British Pullman when you arrive at
London Victoria, where you're welcomed aboard by liveried stewards.
A delicious brunch will be served during your journey to Kent in
your gorgeous Art Deco carriage, at a table adorned with pristine
table linen and bespoke glassware.
Enjoy the ever-changing views as the train makes its way through
the countryside and arrives in the chalky downlands of Kent that
are so revered by winemakers.
The pinnacle of this trip is a visit to Balfour Winery, on a
wonderful 400 acre wine estate, and meeting wine expert Oz Clarke,
who'll host an informative tutored tasting. You'll get a glass of
delicious bubbly on arrival, which is made in the same way as fine
French Champagnes, and gain an insight into grape-to-glass
winemaking with an informative guided tour.
You'll also get to wander the peaceful estate with its acres of
manicured vineyards, wildflower meadows, apple orchards, and
ancient oak woodland.
On the journey home you'll be served an exceptional gastronomic
four-course dinner, paired with the sommelier's carefully selected
wines. Bask in the beautiful countryside surroundings and beautiful
views from the windows. Finally, you'll arrive back at London
Victoria, as your memorable day in Kent draws to a close.
This trip is also operating with special guest Dame Joanna
Lumley - find out more
