Our modern winery with its arching steel roof is a local landmark visible from miles away. This state-of-the-art winery was built in 2000. Its array of stainless steel tanks have the capacity to store 3.5 million litres of wine. The winery features a vast barrel hall with over 1000 barrels and an enormous loading bay. The winery is the crucible of five main wine brands for Plunkett Fowles, and also produces wine for 20 clients.

We have four fulltime, highly-trained winemakers on site (more than is usual for a winery of its size) allowing thorough attention and skill to be given to each batch of wine. The winery has a fully-equipped laboratory for wine and grape analysis. At the height of the vintage the winery operates 24 hours a day with around 20 staff. The winery has the capacity to crush 7500 tonnes of fruit each vintage. There are three tank presses, and a whole-bunch grape press for sparkling wine. Further along the production line there are 16 state-of-the-art sweep-arm fermenters, and a wide array of filtration systems including the latest crossflow filters.
