Tailored Tours & Events

We can organise tours & events to suit your group, starting with a simple wine tasting through to something more elaborate.

For example, we have hosted tastings followed by canapés in the garden for wedding groups, a tour and tasting followed by an alfresco lunch for a group of 26 people, three-course wine matched lunches for wine enthusiasts.

Visitors are Welcome

Visitors are welcomed throughout the year with tours and tastings regularly offered. We can organise special events on the grounds. In addition the magnificent, restored, 160 square metre entertaining room can be made available.

Our tasting room and shop is in the ancient three-story tower that overlooks the valley. Built into the limestone escarpment, the lower ground floor takes you into the caves. It makes a memorable location to host a dinner or just visit to try our wines.

If you would like to stay, the former stone vineyard workers cottage has been sympathetically restored to provide a spacious comfortable base for a vacation amongst the vineyards of Bordeaux.

Gracious hospitality

Gracious hospitality

“Thank you for your gracious hospitality. Oue guests LOVED their time with you! In fact, you were most people’s favorite visit! You are right – they loved getting to meet the actual people behind the wines, walk through the vineyards with you and taste grapes off the vine, and get to tank taste with Nick. All things that are rare to get to do on wine tours which they raved about. It was a 10/10 experience. Thank you so much for having us!! ” Kellie group of 18 from USA Sept 2023

“Thanks for this, we had the Sauvignon Blanc yesterday and it was delicious! I’ll be in touch when I’m home and hopefully place an order then – we went to a Grand Cru Classé vineyard in St Emilion today, the tour was good but not as good as yours! David from Ireland Sept 2023

Marpeau Rouge..Outrageous Quality

I was fortunate enough to win a case of Marpeau Rouge as a raffle prize. I was delighted with the swift delivery service and the outrageous quality of the wine. Having guzzled the first few bottles with glee we have now resolved to savour the rest and can’t wait to try the other varieties. Vanessa Tovell, PMA Prizewinner
