Take a vineyard tour
by
Jill Dixon
Do you know the essential difference between a Rioja and a Riesling? A Gewürztraminer and Vinho Verde?
A wine’s country of origin can make a huge impact on flavour as well as price. As you might imagine, the journey from grape to glass is a fascinating process, so why not take a vineyard tour, you'll learn about wine making and get to see where the true magic happens.
Offering three tours and a relaxed approach to wine and winemaking, Camel Valley vineyard in Cornwall, produces award-winning wines right here in the UK. They are winding down for the season at this time of year, but book ahead for next summer and sample their Cornwall Brut.
