Wine Tasting Experiences In London

Discover exceptional wines, remarkable people and intimate, private rooms across London.

The Encountr Philosophy

Wine is more than A drink.

Wine is an art form to be treasured, respected, understood and enjoyed. It serves to bring joy, connection and moments of indulgence.

Encountr crafts exceptional wine tasting experiences across private dining rooms in London, unlocking access to spaces few ever see individually, experiencing off-menu wines in intimate atmospheres.

At the heart of every Encountr experience is the mission to connect people, transcending entertainment, where experiences are intentionally designed to be felt, remembered and shared. Through thoughtful sequencing, hospitality and a focus on human-scale connection, we create moments that are irreplicable, meaningful and deeply personal.

This is London as you haven't experienced it before, in rooms few ever enter.

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.

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.

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!
