"There’s no better way to pay homage to the stunning Norfolk countryside than drinking Burn Valley wine.

The vineyard recently got a shout-out from Guardian wine expert Fiona Beckett, who named its 2022 Chardonnay in her list of six English wines to enjoy, describing it as a "sumptuously rich chardonnay that bears comparison with good white burgundy".

Its 2022 Chardonnay also won a gold medal at the 2024 Independent English Wine Awards (IEWA) last month. 

A selection of Burn Valley wines (Image: Burn Valley Vineyard) Burn Valley currently grows nine different grape varieties, including Early Pinot, Pinot Noir, Rondo, Bacchus, Solaris and Seyval Blanc, which are tended to by experienced winemaker Matthew Abbey.

From this selection, a variety of red, white, rose and sparkling wines are produced. 

The vineyard also hosts a series of regular events including summer wine tastings, secret suppers and steak nights.
