*************

Sharpham Vineyard is located near the town of Totnes, sat in the hamlet of Ashprington, and produces mainly dry whites from the cool climate grape Madeleine Angevine. Like the majority of English vineyards, it is open for tasting in the winery and tours of the vineyard. Though English vineyards are not typically known for producing excellent wine, Sharpham has created a continentally known collection of wine.

Sharpham is also very well known for its Devonshire cheeses. A mixture between herby hard cheeses and creamy summer cheeses, they have gathered awards nationwide and sell cheese all over Devon.

The thousand year old farm consists of five hundred acres owned by the Sharpham Trust. The house, designed in 1770 by Sir Robert Taylor, overlooks the fields and wooded slopes above the River Dart, two miles downstream of the ancient market town of Totnes.

Sharpham Partnership is the trading name for the diversified activities run on the family estate. Situated on the banks of the River Dart near Totnes in South Devon, the vineyards, creamery and organic dairy farm have been producing wines and unpasteurised cheeses for over twenty years to local, national and international acclaim. By producing their own Jersey cow’s milk on the farm and growing a range of carefully selected cool climate grapes varieties in the vineyard, they believe they are in control of production from start to finish. The results are individual, hand made wines and cheeses with a special character and flavour that relates to the unique position in the South Hams area of Devon.
