Vineyard tours allow you to see the exact process of the making of your favourite wines from grape to glass. They give you the chance to learn all about the harvesting and crushing of the grapes, as well as the ageing and bottling process.
Wine tasting experiences and vineyard tours make the perfect day out, present to your loved one or just a treat to yourself. Where else would a wine enthusiast want to spend their time other than strolling round the vines sipping on a tipple or two!
Wine tasting is a sensory experience where you can appreciate the individual characteristics of the bodies of wine. During your tour you can smell, sip and savor the wine whilst embracing the aroma, flavour and finish.
Vineyards are ideal for escaping the hustle and bustle of everyday life and embracing new tranquil surroundings. Indulging in a wine tasting experience and vineyard tour lets you relax and take in the beautiful scenery.
As well as learning about the different types of wines that are produced, you will get to know your local wine industry. You can meet the winemakers and vineyard owners to learn about the basics of the wine making process, as well as the story behind the vineyard.
When visiting vineyards you will also be able to try the unique wines that you can only get at that specific vineyard. At Yorkshire Heart we have wines special to us such as the Eleanor wine, Latimer wine, Ortega wine and Winemaker’s choice wine.
Based near the picturesque village of Nun Monkton, between York and Harrogate, lies our family run Yorkshire Heart Vineyard & Brewery.
