Welcome to Eastcott Vineyard

Eastcott Vineyard lies within easy reach of the A30, in central West Devon. Richard and Hilary Waller came to the South West of England to establish a business creating fine English wines and to build on the growing success of the English Wine Industry. Eastcott nestles in a delightful sheltered Devon vale, a few miles north-west of Okehampton. The vineyard enjoys well drained gently south-east facing slopes above a valley carved by a tributary of the River Lew. From the top of the vineyard the highest point of Dartmoor National Park is just visible beyond a ridge that provides crucial shelter.

We started to establish our vineyard in 2007 and as members of the South West Vineyards Association are following current best practice within English Vineyards. The grape varieties have been carefully chosen, both to suit the English climate and the production of high quality sparkling wine, as well as a range of white, rose and red wines. Production times for sparkling wine extend for up to three years and so we will be building the range year on year. Please see the Wines page for details of current products and future release dates.

Our state of the art, temperature controlled, 260m2 winery went into production in 2008. The equipment includes a sophisticated pneumatic press, capable of the very gentle processing required to produce the highest quality juice, and modern variable capacity stainless steel tanks for controlled fermentation and storage. Alongside stands equipment for traditional method sparkling wine production, allowing us to benefit equally from the very best of past and present.
