Digby After Dark

When the cellar door closes, the music turns up. Join us one Friday a month for Digby After Dark, an evening of live music in our tasting room from 8:00pm – 10:30pm. Each event features a different artist, with styles ranging from acoustic soul and jazz to indie, folk and beyond, so no two nights are ever the same. Throughout the evening, snacks and our full menu will be available to order at your table, so you can settle in and make a night of it. If you’d like to start your evening a little earlier, we recommend booking a table before 8pm to enjoy some fizz ahead of the music. Spaces are limited – advance booking is recommended.
