Elevate Your Wine Tasting Experience: The Charm of Tipis in Vineyards

 

Wine tasting has long been a celebrated experience, with enthusiasts gathering to taste the flavours of carefully crafted wines. As vineyards and wineries continue to seek innovative ways to enhance their guest experiences, the use of Tipis as unique spaces has become increasingly popular. At The Tipi Company, we specialise in crafting stunning outdoor tipis that create unforgettable wine tasting experiences that will leave a lasting impression on your guests.

The Allure of Tipis in Vineyards

Tipis have a timeless appeal, with their natural materials seamlessly blending into the picturesque landscapes of vineyards. These unique structures offer a versatile and captivating space that can transform any wine tasting event into a memorable occasion. Whether you’re hosting an intimate gathering or a larger celebration, Tipis provide the perfect setting for wine enthusiasts to indulge in the flavours of your finest wines while surrounded by the beauty of your vineyard. The beauty of a tipi is that it can be pitched anywhere due to our unique SecureFix anchorage methods. So whether you want a tipi built in the heart of your vineyard field, or attached to your existing building, we have the answer. 

The Perfect Fit: Little Hat Tipis for Smaller Gatherings

For vineyards and wineries looking to host smaller, more intimate wine tasting events, our Little Hat Tipi shelters are an ideal choice. With a covering of 7.5 metres, these outdoor shelters can comfortably seat 30-50 people, making them perfect for exclusive tastings or private events. The open structure of the Little Hat Tipi allows guests to enjoy the warm summer breeze and the stunning views of your vineyard, creating a relaxed and inviting atmosphere that enhances the overall experience.

One of the standout features of our Little Hat Tipis is their versatility. While they are perfect for outdoor summer events, additional sides can be purchased to enclose the space, making them suitable for year-round use. This adaptability ensures that your vineyard can offer exceptional wine tasting experiences no matter the season, allowing your guests to enjoy the charm of the tipi in both warm and cooler weather.

Success Stories: Arbourne Estate

We have had the privilege of working with a number of English vineyards over the years with our Little Hat Tipi being the most popular option. 

Arbourne Estate is an award-winning, family-owned vineyard and winery overlooking the beautiful South Downs, just 8 miles from Brighton in the heart of the Sussex countryside. They craft small quantities of award-winning still and sparkling English wine using their own sustainably grown grapes. 

Arbourne Estate invested in a Little Hat Tipi to be used as a focal point for summer tastings, providing an enchanting space where guests can sample their wines while soaking in the natural beauty of the vineyard.

Success Stories: Oxney Organic Estate

Oxney Organic, another of our clients, is the largest single-estate producer of English organic wine, producing around 20% of all organic grapes grown in the UK. All of their wines are made in a converted Grade II listed square oast house, kitted out in the latest winery equipment. They have a plethora of ways you can experience Oxney, including hiring their converted barns, historic Vineyard House, or staying the weekend in one of their cosy Shepherd’s Huts. They offer a vineyard tour and picnic experience under one of our Little Hats where you can enjoy a charcuterie board, delicious nibbles and of course, some delicious organic wine.

Hosting Large Events: The Big Hat Tipi

If your vineyard is looking to host larger wine tasting events, our Big Hat Tipi may be the perfect solution. With a diameter of 10.4m – 13m, the Big Hat Tipi can seat up to 90 people, providing ample space for grander celebrations. For vineyards that regularly host large gatherings or special events, multiple Big Hat Tipis can be linked together to create a spacious and inviting environment that can accommodate even more guests.

To further enhance the experience, The Tipi Company offers a range of enhancements that can be purchased to create the perfect tipi formation for your event. Whether you’re looking to add atmospheric lighting, tables, or elegant entrances, our enhancements allow you to customise your Tipi to suit the specific needs of your space and create a truly unique wine tasting space.
