    Absolutely beyond amazing. Hands down the best tour and the most gorgeous vineyard we have ever been to. We travel around the world to different wineries and this has been by far the best we've been to (more than 500)! Highly recommend you take the time to stop by for the tour and enjoy the beautiful property!!!

    Free to visit & wander the vineyards. We paid to sample the wines & have a cheese platter sat overlooking the vines. Beautiful setting.

    We came here for lunch and wine pairing. We sat upstairs with a view of the vineyard. This place reminds me of small wine producers in Livermore, California we used to visit. I've been to St. Emillion, and that's a completely different level when we talk about wines. However, the food with wine was good, and I recommend reserve your table ahead online.

    Excellent welcome at reception. Trying to purchase items in the shop, girls too busy talking behind the bar and had to ask one of them to assist. Roast very mediocre. One slice of murdered sirloin, veg on plate rather than a serving dish. £25. Cauliflower cheese in a separate dish with no serving spoon, had to ask and that was at additional cost. Very disappointed, had high hopes for it. Too much talking going on with waiting staff too.A great shame
