Tour & Tasting Experience
Due to current government advice regarding venues where people mix socially, it has been decided to suspend tours until at least June. We hope you will bear with us until we are able to get together again. Our tour vouchers will still be able to be used. You can still buy our tour vouchers as a gift to book onto a tour at a future date.
Ryedale Vineyards offer an informal and informative tour and wine tasting which allows visitors to look around the vineyard and winery and sample our wines.
£10 per person, the tours run weekends at 3pm from Easter until the end of October (except harvest time), dates with availability are shown in the drop down list on the booking form to the right
Tours include:
• Guided tour with one of our winemakers
• A short vineyard walk
• Wine tasting with local cheeses
Please note, dogs are not permitted in the vineyard, please do not leave your dog in the car. We politely ask that you do not arrive more than 15 minutes before your tour as we are a working vineyard and facilities are limited. We ask that you allow 2 hours for your tour.

About the Tour
Your guide, which will be one of our two winemakers, will start off your tour in our vineyard and will explain the different types of vines we grow, and the care and management of them. Moving into the winery, we will explain the mysteries of wine production and the equipment used. This will be followed by a tasting of our wines with cheese and nibbles, outdoors in good weather or in our tasting room or farmhouse should the weather be cold or wet.
Please allow around two hours for your tour, wear suitable footwear and warm clothing if your tour is in chilly weather. The vineyard can be uneven and the floor of the winery is cobbled stone. Please note due to the working environment, we cannot accommodate dogs or young children.
You will have the opportunity to purchase our wines direct from the winery. Taxis are available from Malton approximately six miles away should you not wish to drive.
"Brilliant....a wonderful, enterprising, successful, happy family business. Couldn't rate it more highly. A great interesting visit." - Mo
