What's Brewing in the Castle Wine Cellar

The Castle’s warm and welcoming wine cellar as well as recipes found in antiquarian books have inspired us to explore some of our own winemaking possibilities. We stock wine from many different vineyards.

Please join us as we review and feature one wine per month, and discuss our adventures in winemaking.

An old recipe for Dandelion Wine is our first endeavor. We collected dandelion flowers and wild violets and added some secret Castle ingredients to brew into a very special wine.
