Join us at Oaken Grove Vineyard for an afternoon of Jazz, accompanied by delicious local Wine and Food.

Now celebrating its 20th year together, John Etheridge's Sweet Chorus was originally formed as a personal tribute by John to his mentor and inspiration Stephane Grappelli with whom he worked for 5 years in the 70's and early 80's. Taking its cue from the Hot Club of France (the legendary group that featured Grappelli and Django Reinhardt), the band features John's dazzling guitar work and the scintillating violin of Christian Garrick - the relationship of these two has been described as one of the most potent in European jazz - and backed up by the propulsive drive of Dave Kelbie and Andy Crowdy, the band produces breath taking sallies through repertoire both old and contemporary. A must for all fans of melodically based inspired, swinging acoustic jazz.

Vineyard gates open at midday and guests are welcome to enjoy drinks on the wine terrace before the jazz starting at around 3pm.

Tables for 6, 3 and 2 people are available to and each table will be served a delicious grazing box full of local cheeses, charcutierie, nuts and fruits (vegetarian and vegan boxes available on request).  Wines from our own vineyard as well as some other local guest wines and local beers will also be available for purchase.  Each table of six people will also receive a complimentary bottle of Oaken Grove Vineyard wine.

Full Covid prevention measures will be in place, and we ask all our guests to follow guidelines.
