About D’Urberville Vineyard
Established in 2011 by Colin Hawkins, D’Urberville Vineyard can be found on a picturesque south-facing slope in Dorset. The vineyard’s name pays homage to Colin’s grandfather’s connection to renowned author Thomas Hardy. Our five-acre vineyard boasts over 5,000 vines, featuring classic champagne grape varieties Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Chardonnay. In 2014, we introduced Bacchus, a new addition to our vineyard, with plans to produce still white Bacchus wine.
Our inaugural harvest in 2014 yielded an award-winning English Sparkling Wine, crafted using traditional methods and aged for two years. We’re thrilled to have received a Gold Medal at the Independent English Wine Awards 2021 and a Silver Medal at the South West Independent Wine Association Awards 2018. As we continue to grow, we look forward to offering vineyard tours and tastings. Join us in experiencing the beauty and excellence of D’Urberville Vineyard.
