About Ten Acres Vineyard

Ten Acres Vineyard stands as a delightful addition to Devon's flourishing English wine scene, offering visitors an authentic glimpse into small-scale British winemaking. Established in 2007, this West Country vineyard has cultivated a dedicated following among English wine enthusiasts seeking intimate, characterful wineries away from the mass tourism routes. The vineyard takes its name from the modest yet perfectly formed acreage dedicated to viticulture, with 0.90 hectares of carefully tended vines producing grapes that capture the essence of Devon's unique terroir.

The vineyard specialises in cultivating grape varieties well-suited to England's cooler climate, including Ortega, Seyval Blanc, Mad Angie, and the intriguing Hungarian hybrid Zalagyongye. These carefully selected varieties allow Ten Acres Vineyard to produce wines that reflect both traditional English wine craftsmanship and innovative winemaking approaches. The use of Mad Angie, a relatively rare variety in UK vineyards, demonstrates the winery's commitment to offering distinctive products that set it apart from more mainstream producers.
