On Friday June 19, 7pm, we’re hosting a six-course wine dinner with Hagen Viljoen from Zevenwacht Wine Estate in Stellenbosch alongside Elliott Awin from ABS Wines. 🇿🇦 🍷 🍽️

Zevenwacht’s vineyards sit close to the coast, cooled by sea air rolling in from False Bay and Table Bay. The result is wines loaded with ripeness, freshness and structure.

You’ll taste everything from textured barrel-fermented Chenin Blanc and vibrant Sauvignon Blanc through to rich, spice-led reds including Syrah and the estate’s Tin Mine blends. They'll be matched with a seasonal menu from Dean and the kitchen team.

Book now on 01780 410355.

We're excited to be part of this year’s Nevill Holt Festival 💚

Come and see us if you can.

We'll be hosting a relaxed seasonal cookery demonstration in the beautiful surroundings of Nevill Holt near Market Harborough at 5pm on Saturday, June 20.

Dean will demonstrate a selection of Olive Branch favourites including Scotch eggs, cheese soufflés, slow-cooked beef, Eton mess and more, sharing the techniques and inspiration behind the dishes along the way.

Alongside the cooking, Ben will guide guests through a handpicked selection of local ales and English wines chosen to match Dean’s cooking.

Nevill Holt Festival is one of the highlights of the local summer calendar and we’re looking forward to being in the line-up.

Wine is a big part of life at The Olive Branch. 🍷

Our wine list runs to 17 pages, and we also have a small wine shop next to the dining room where you can browse bottles to take home.

Andy, our GM, is always happy to point you towards something interesting, whether you’re after a dinner-party bottle, a weekend treat, or just something new to try. He recently passed his introductory sommelier exam and hosts his own wine podcast, The Devine Wine Podcast.

So next time you’re in, remember to have a look around the wine shop. 👀
