Who we are

About the farm

We are a family-run vineyard on the Essex coast at Thorrington, near Colchester, on the edge of the Colne Estuary. In 2018 we planted our 12-acre (about 4.9 ha) vineyard on south-facing slopes at sea level; from Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Bacchus we make still and sparkling English wines, and a small flock of Shropshire sheep grazes between the rows. From spring to early autumn we welcome visitors on Saturdays, Sundays and bank holidays from 10:00 to 16:00 for coffee, cake and wine; from May to September we run guided vineyard tours, tastings and events, and we also sell our wines in our online shop.
