Informative and enjoyable
We’ve been on winery tours in other countries but it was great to see how a British farmer and his son have built up a business producing high quality wines here. In an hour they taught us much about how the grapes are grown and processed, explaining everything with great clarity and enthusiasm. Highly recommended.

A sparkling experience
We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and the tour guide was very good giving us plenty of background. The owner also went into details of how they press, store and bottle etc and we tasted 4 of their sparkling wines. Overall excellent

Great day out!
The Court Garden Winery was absolutely wonderful - it is not a huge operation, but Hugo and his staff were knowledgeable and entertaining, and the wines we tasted were amazing. we did buy several of them - and if not for this experience day would not know of their existence. Highly recommended!!
