Extraordinary wines - no pesticides used at all - lovely cider which is traditionally straw-pressed.

Called into the vineyard on a rainy Sunday afternoon. The owner was really friendly and happy to let us try all their fruit wines and liqueurs etc. They had a great selection and all were delicious.
