Premium wines from
the Upper Stour Valley
Giffords Hall is a family-owned vineyard on the site of ancient glacial riverbed
near Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk. We've been producing quality
single estate wines for over twenty years.

Sustainability
We practice minimal-
intervention growing
Instead of perfect hedges and neatly trimmed rows, we opt for natural solutions wherever possible.

The Winery
Traditional
winemaking techniques
Wines are made in small batch production, using both stainless steel tanks
and French oak barrels. While our aromatic wines are habitually fermented
in stainless steel to preserve varietal characteristics, others are lees aged in
barrel to bring a higher level of expression and complexity.

Vineyard Story

Situated on an ancient glacial riverbed, our 19-acre site on fertile sandy loam soil over gravel produces quality grapes, high in natural sugars and acids, which lend themselves particularly well to sparkling and still wines.

Discover our tranquil vineyard

Giffords Hall Vineyard is a beautiful place to visit in the heart of the Upper Stour valley. Hartest is one of Suffolk’s prettiest villages, with a hump backed bridge, thatched and painted houses and a large green. It has great pubs within walking distance and we are surrounded by picturesque places of interest such as Long Melford, Lavenham and Bury St Edmunds (an Historic cathedral town boasting many splendid places to eat).

Our tour gift vouchers provide a wonderful way of enjoying our informative, entertaining tours, either for yourself or as a great gift for friends or family. We also cater for parties and always look forward to welcoming visitors to our beautiful vineyard.
