Wine. Stories. Strange little worlds.

Evenings worth getting lost in.

Glenstead creates hosted experiences built around wine, storytelling, and shared acts of imagination.

For a few hours, reality becomes slightly more negotiable.

Now at Glenstead

Current & forthcoming experiences.

October 2026 • The Biscuit Factory, Newcastle

Letters Never Sent

A salon exploring the conversations we never finished, the letters we never posted, and the lives that might have been.

The Hermit

A wine merchant for the curious

The Hermit is the wine side of Glenstead — bottles chosen because they’re worth putting into somebody else’s hands.

The Wine Shop

Six bottles at a time.

Choose your own — or take The Hermit Six.

The Selection

Three bottles. One idea.

A reason to reconsider something you thought you knew.

Pull up a chair.

Every now and then, we’ll send a note.

New experiences, discoveries, and the occasional invitation.

We’d love to keep in touch.
