City slickers with a taste for sparkling wine can now escape to the rolling Hampshire countryside in serious style, thanks to a new partnership between global chauffeur service Blacklane and award-winning English winery Hattingley Valley.
As part of Blacklane’s growing City-to-Vineyard collection, the collaboration offers curated tastings and private tours at Hattingley Valley, with seamless return transport from London included. Think: bespoke fizz flights, countryside views, and no need to argue over who’s the designated driver.

Guests are chauffeured from central London in one of Blacklane’s high-spec vehicles, carbon offset, of course, and dropped off at Hattingley’s state-of-the-art winery. There, they’ll be treated to a guided tasting of its award-winning English sparkling wines, including the elegant Blanc de Blancs, the prestige Kings Cuvée, and the playful English Gent.
Customised experiences are available, tailored to each guest’s level of wine knowledge- whether you’re a casual cork-popper or a seasoned sommelier.
There’s plenty of room in the boot for souvenirs too: bottles, magnums and exclusive gift boxes all fit neatly alongside a smug sense of satisfaction.
“We’re thrilled to create a cuvée experience that keeps the wine flowing and the stress low,” says Blacklane’s London GM James Dow. “The best English wines are just a short drive from the city, now you can explore them without lifting a finger.”
Hattingley Valley’s Marketing Manager Channing Jones adds: “This partnership makes it even easier for guests to visit our winery, discover how we craft our wines, and enjoy the Hampshire countryside without compromise.”
The service costs from £630 for two people, including return travel and tasting. To book your own bubbles-and-backseat experience, visit: hattingleyvalley.com.
