Our Open Day of the 25 May 2009 proved to be very busy and successful. On a very warm/hot day we carried out five guided tours of the vineyard and raised in excess of £120 for Hospiscare. Feedback on tastings and wine sales was very encouraging and we are now looking forward to launching our 2009 vintage which will be a Rose wine. Thank you for your support.
Booking is essential. Tel 01395 443877 for guided and self guided tours, tasting and wine sales (cash only please). Entry will be £2.00 per person which we will donate to Hospicecare.
