Chilworth Wine Festival - Saturday 28th June
In partnership with the Vineyards of the Surrey Hills' Summer Spectacular.
Timings: 3-8pm
Come and enjoy an afternoon and early evening of live music, delicious street food and Chilworth Manor Wines.
In celebration of English Wine Week, and as part of the Surrey Hills' Summer Spectacular, throughout the day we will be hosting two free vineyard talks and a separate guided tasting featuring one wine from each of the Vineyards of the Surrey Hills (VoSH) which will be ticketed (tickets for this talk are limited and will be available to ticket holders in due course).
Adults will receive a complimentary glass of wine on arrival (ticket holders will be contacted with details on how to claim your free drink) and children over 5 will receive a complimentary soft drink.
You’re welcome to bring a chair or blanket to relax and enjoy the afternoon among the vines as there will be limited seating. We kindly ask that you don’t bring outside food or drink, as we encourage you to support our fantastic local food vendors, and all our wines will be available to purchase at the bar.
Tours & Tastings
Enjoy our English sparkling and rosé wines at The Watch House
On our vineyard tours, you can see and learn about our vines, their growth cycle and the winemaking process, as well as hearing about the fascinating history of Chilworth Manor. After a short walk around the vineyard we’ll return to The Watch House, our new tasting barn named after the original watch house that once stood in our fields.
With its stunning views over the vineyard and across to St Martha's Hill, it's the perfect spot to try our sparkling wines and still rosé, together with some specially prepared complimentary pairing bites.

Workshops & Wine
Do something different in a beautiful setting
Why not combine the beauty of nature with the taste of wine? Our workshops let you take full advantage of the spectacular setting of The Watch House, our new tasting barn, whilst perfecting your skills and enjoying our premium quality wine.
We started the series on Tuesday 23rd July with two photography workshops, where professional photographer Lillian Spibey showed how to use light and the rules of composition to capture stunning images of our grapes, vines and the surrounding Surrey Hills.
