Templars Oak Vineyard

About Templars Oak Vineyard

Templars Oak Vineyard is a charming small-scale wine producer situated in the picturesque Scottish Borders region of Mid and North Scotland. Established in 2016, this boutique vineyard has been quietly cultivating quality wine grapes for nearly a decade, contributing to the growing recognition of Scottish winemaking as a legitimate and exciting corner of the English wine industry.

The vineyard occupies a modest 0.60 hectares of planted vines, demonstrating that exceptional wines can emerge from smaller operations with careful attention to viticulture and winemaking practices. Templars Oak Vineyard has carefully selected grape varieties that thrive in the challenging Scottish climate, which presents unique opportunities for producing distinctive wines with character and sense of place.

The vineyard cultivates four grape varieties: Mad Angie, Pinot Noir, Rondo, and Solaris. These varieties have been chosen for their ability to ripen successfully in the cooler conditions of southern Scotland while retaining the acidity and complexity that make northern wines so compelling. Pinot Noir brings elegance and structure to the portfolio, while Solaris contributes freshness and resilience. Rondo adds body and depth, and the intriguing Mad Angie variety brings its own unique personality to the wines of Templars Oak.
