On September 2, Finch will also release its brand-new wine list, featuring more exotic regions along with English and sparkling wines.

Fable and Company founder, Andrew Gray said: “This festival is about more than just wine, it’s about Brixton. We wanted to create something that feels inclusive and rooted in the community. Finch is proud to be part of a movement that brings people together over a glass of something delicious, while also giving back to the place we love.

“Our mission has always been to make wine accessible to all, and this is just another step in the right direction.”
