Colin and Judith bought the vineyard in 1997 and since then have won many awards for their wines. A 7-8 minute walk across the field will take you there. Follow the footpath at the top of the Nurtons in the direction of Tintern, across the field and down the track. We recommend the champagne, it is delicious! The vineyard shop is usually open from 1pm until 5.30 or dusk in the winter every day except Wednesday - check website for up-to-date info.
