Visit Down St Mary Vineyard in Devon. Wine tasting parties and vineyard tours welcomed. Superior English wines with an international reputation. Situated on a steep, sun filled, south-facing slope above the meandering River Yeo, Down St Mary Vineyard enjoys a benign microclimate in the beautiful heart of rural mid Devon.
First planted in 1986, the area under vines now extends to 5 ½ acres with vines of different varieties chosen mainly for their excellence in the cooler, damper conditions of the English climate and for their early ripening potential. The soil is warm Devon shale and the vines are trained on the Double Guyot system. |
