Overview

A tour of Swanaford Vineyard gives visitors a fascinating insight into growing grapes and making wine in England. Visitors will walk through the vines, seeing the five varieties that we grow on site, including Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier which are the traditional champagne grapes. A visit in the spring will allow visitors to see the vines emerging from winter hibernation, with new shoots forming on the recently pruned vines. In high summer or early autumn, expect lots of vigorous growth and, of course, grapes! The vineyard is set in a beautiful valley within the Dartmoor National Park and is surrounded by breathtaking countryside.

Our group sizes are kept deliberately small to ensure that each visitor has a comfortable and engaging experience. Our guides are all highly knowledgeable and extremely friendly. We welcome questions and are happy to talk about all aspects of vineyard management and winemaking.

Food is available after the tour, see our website.
