A Vineyard at the Edge of Possibility
Set in the Vale of York, Dunesforde is among the most northerly vineyards in the UK, where a cool climate and careful cultivation create wines of distinctive character. Established in 2016, its roots run deep, shaped by both ancient Roman heritage and inspiration from Tuscany’s rolling vineyards.
Planted with four grape varieties—Bacchus, Solaris, Pinot Gris, and Pinot Noir Précoce—the vineyard thrives on a landscape that challenges convention. Its unique position, sheltered slopes, and long ripening seasons contribute to wines of exceptional depth and complexity. Dunesforde’s award-winning still and sparkling wines continue to redefine the possibilities of English viticulture, bringing a taste of history and craftsmanship to every glass.
