Client Stories

In their words

Encountr has the ability to gather wine lovers together at events, dinners, tastings, and then our team can engage with them. So they get a real in-depth understanding of various wine regions around the world and various wine projects that they can't experience on their own.

Patrick McGrath, Hatch Mansfield

Member since 2025

From my experience, as I'm a pretty tough customer, I find that Encountr actually know what I want and what I like. And as with wine and with food, it's a subjective thing. So if somebody can actually understand what my needs are and what I like and not just match them, but exceed all expectations, to me, that's not somebody I'm letting go of quickly.

Meera Cortesi, The London Truffle Queen

Member since 2025

Every dinner felt like being let in on a secret. I have met winemakers, collectors and friends I would never have found on my own.

David is a knowledgeable and welcoming host who guides you through the tasting in a relaxed, informative and convivial manner. The food paired well with the wines, and we enjoyed meeting some like-minded fellow guests. Highly recommended.

We had a fantastic evening with David! His knowledge of wine is second to none, and you can tell from the way he talks about it that wine is a true passion of his. It was great hearing some of his stories about where wine has taken him, whilst learning some tips on how to better taste wine and enjoy it. We couldn't recommend this enough and hope to be back tasting wine with David and Encountr soon!

The true value of wine lies beyond the glass.
It brings people together, sparks conversation and creates moments that matter. That is why we create wine-led experiences built around discovery, access and shared experiences - from intimate tastings and exceptional dining to unforgettable journeys into the world of exceptional wine. Because the best experiences are not just about what is in the glass alone.
