Enjoy a visit to the vineyard and garden, learn a brief history, followed by a tasting of our wines from our award winning range.

We pick the grapes in October and the vines remain dormant until the beginning of April and although we start the initial hard pruning mid February there will not be any grapes to see on the vines, only buds, but you will gain an understanding of the vines annual life cycle.
