Established in 2016, Velfrey Vineyard occupies a gentle south facing slope in the south Pembrokeshire countryside where we have over 4,000 vines planted across 3 acres. We are a family run vineyard and pride ourselves on our attention to every detail.
The vines are planted in clay loam, a soil type which is found in some of the world's most prestigious wine growing regions. Pembrokeshire sunshine combined with coastal breezes will produce perfect ripening conditions and lead to wines of the highest quality.
From Easter to mid-October we run tours twice weekly on Thursdays and Saturdays, starting at 11am. The tours begin in our visitor’s lodge where we tell you how Velfrey came to be. We then head into the vines where you get to see the vineyard up close and how we look after the vines. The tour finishes back in our lodge where you taste our wines and we discuss the wine making and the tasting notes.
After the tour you can choose to stay on for one of our grazing boards. We have the option of the Welsh Grazing board which includes delicious Monmouthshire charcuterie, a selection of artisanal cheeses from across West Wales, locally baked focaccia and Pembrokeshire chutneys, all elegantly presented with a range of Mediterranean-style sundries in our wonderful lodge overlooking the vineyard. Priced at £20 per person.
We also have our Welsh Cheese Board which includes the delicious cheeses, focaccia, chutneys and sundries and it is suitable for vegetarians. Priced at £15 per person.
