Knightor Winery

Knightor Winery is a working winery and exclusive wedding venue perched above St Austell Bay in Cornwall, offering a world of exclusive events and experiences alongside crafted wines, spritzes, and cocktails. The winery represents Cornwall's growing reputation for quality wine production, with the maritime climate and varied terrain creating interesting opportunities for viticulture.

Knightor Winery: Site and Grape Varieties

The wine range showcases cool climate styles, from refreshing aromatic whites and rosés to fruit-forward reds. Crafted in small batches to express each vintage, the wines are exclusive and ephemeral - perfect whether you're seeking a delicate aperitif, an accompaniment to a special meal, or a thoughtful gift.

Guided Wine Tours run every Sunday from April to September, taking visitors on a journey from grape to glass with one of the winemakers. The 90-minute experience explores how different grape varieties and winemaking techniques produce various styles, following the grapes from vine to bottle and concluding with a tutored tasting. Dogs are welcome on these friendly, informative tours.

Wine tastings are available at the Cellar Door, with both guided and self-guided options. The guided tasting samples four wines with your host sharing production insights, tasting profiles, and answering questions. Self-guided flights offer a more informal experience, perfect as an aperitif before exploring the rest of the winery.
