The wait is over - harvest has officially begun! 🍇

The winery is alive with activity as we welcome the grapes that will be transformed into next year’s new release stills and sparklings that will age for years to come.

After a difficult growing season, this year’s harvest is showing great promise, with grapes that exhibit high sugars and acidity, resulting in more intensely aromatic flavours.

Swipe to see some snapshots of harvest in action!

On the palate, you’ll find rich red fruits balanced by gentle oak notes - perfect for savouring by a crackling campfire.

Wines, Weddings, Feasts & Events

Nestled just above St Austell Bay in South-East Cornwall and a stone’s throw from the Eden Project, Knightor is a winery, kitchen, wedding and events venue with a quintessentially Cornish setting. We produce premium-quality still and sparkling wines, as well as our own unique Cornish vermouth. Throughout the year, we offer wine tours and tastings, where you can visit the working winery, sample and purchase wines.

Alongside great wines, we believe quality produce is just as important and we use only the finest, local ingredients in our cooking. Our regular feast nights celebrate both local and world cuisines, bringing together a community vibe for an enjoyable evening. Recent themes have included Sri Lankan, Cuban and Nordic evenings.
