Hand grown, harvested and created
The alchemy of flavour and the art of experience sit at the heart of Thornfalcon. Everything here is grown, made, blended and curated by hand.
A winemaking haven in a picturesque village
The picturesque village of Thornfalcon is nestled between the Quantocks, Blackdown and Mendip hills, in the Taunton Vale in Somerset. Protected on all sides by hill ranges that shield our vines and orchards from some of the weather coming from the coastlines lying north and south, Thornfalcon is situated in a micro-climate, on fertile clay soil.
Our Commitment to Quality
Vines have been carefully selected to marry our unique climatic conditions. Across our farm, we have Chardonnay, Pinot Noir Meunier, Cabernet Noir, Solaris, Seyval Blanc and Voltis; Kingston Black and Brown cider orchards; and a wide range of fruit trees and botanicals. Grapes from Thornfalcon vines will be ready from 2026 on, and we also select the best and ripest fruit from vineyard partners in the South West to support our drinks production.
We savour sustainable growing, the alchemy of making, the beauty of nature, and great wine, cider, people and food. Our first drinks and products will be available from 2025 onwards – watch this space.
