Vineyard tours

"Grapevines love to live within sight of water. And since most of the great vineyards in Europe are located near rivers, I decided to turn my dream into reality here. With its special microclimate, Lympstone Manor's environmental setting seemed to me to be the ideal place to produce exceptional wines, notably a high quality English sparkling wine using Champagne grapes: Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Meunier. I invite you to enjoy our exciting vineyard tours during the summer months, as well as the festivals taking place at harvest time in the fall. On these unique occasions, we can celebrate our common passion for wine. "
