Please advise of any dietary requirements at time of booking.
We are delighted to have been selected as an independent business to be included in the 2024 Wines of Rioja UK campaign,
Feliz Rioja.
Feliz Rioja is all about getting consumers thinking about Rioja as they turn their minds to festive wines and gifting in the run-up to Christmas.
We will be promoting Rioja wine and, hopefully, bringing to life the quality and diversity of Spain’s finest wine-producing region.
Taking place in the Snug at The Cow Shed these sessions will give you the opportunity to taste and learn about wines of your choice, or themed at your request.
I will talk through the wines with you, giving you as much or as little info. as you wish. Nothing too heavy but may give you the opportunity to learn a little more about wines you've never tried!
The cost of this will depend on the wines selected and will be agreed in advance. A discount will be applied to any purchase made following the tasting.

Set Menu and Wines to celebrate Portugal
Jill welcomed an intimate party to enjoy a three course meal with fabulous wine pairings in central Abingdon. We look forward to hosting more of these evenings!
Tasting at Mod31
We tasted some exciting Portuguese wines as part of our June event with Wines of Portugal. A lovely, intimate evening.
Fizz Tasting at Cow Shed Drinks
We explored the differences between Champagne, Prosecco, Franciacorta on a beautiful spring evening - and have learned to think twice before opting for the same old fizz for your next celebration!
Boozy Books - France at Mostly Books
For those that enjoy books and wine (we think everyone?!), we love our evenings at Abingdon's favourite independent bookshop.
This is what Jill wrote in September 2022 to explain the changes that have happened:
As some of you will be aware I was off work for the whole of March with Covid. One of the reasons for taking the summer off was to try to re-energise myself as I was still feeling under the weather. It also seemed to be a good time to renew the floor (which was very in need of doing) and renew some of the electrics and paint the place throughout.
I fully expected to re-open in October but this is not going to happen. I lack the physical and emotional energy necessary and with Long Covid having been diagnosed and fatigue, brain fog, hot sweats, heart palpitations and joint ache still being prevalent I really am not up to the job.
