Unrequited love is the worst, right?
Well, perhaps not always as that is exactly where the idea for the business came from.
The Wine Tap Van was born out of unrequited love. That is a love of wine, but a serious lack of nice wine at festivals and events.
How hard is it to find a tasty, refreshing, chilled Sauvignon Blanc at a festival? As it turned out, extremely hard.
The Wine Tap Van was born in 2019 and launched in the summer of 2020 when outdoor events were allowed again. From our beautifully restored and converted 1979 Peugeot J7, affectionately named Vinessa, we serve delicious wine on tap, draught beer and homemade sangria.
Let the good times flow!
Vinessa has provided bar services at the following events;
Formula 1 Grand Prix and Moto GP
Liam Gallagher and Noel Gallagher (separately, of course)
Latitude Festival
Parklife Festival
PGA Golf at Wentworth
Covent Garden’s Rosé Festival
Krankbrother Events
Warehouse Project Events
Royal Windsor Horse Show and Burghley Horse Trials
In 2022 ‘Pinot Grigio’ joined the fleet. She is a Peugeot J9 from 1976.
Pinot Grigio is our highest output bar unit and is fitted with 8 customer-facing taps. From this bar, we can serve a wide range of drinks including our speciality wines, draught beer, freshly-made cocktails and much more.
