Our wine
Shillingham is a vineyard like no other; Sitting on the banks of the Lynher River, it has a unique combination of climate, terrain and eco-systems. Famed for its fertile soils, maritime climate and outstanding flora & fauna, this often-ignored part of Cornwall is a developing hub of young, innovative and diverse farming and sustainable business enterprises.
Conceived in the Spring of 2020, Shillingham Vineyard spans 70,000 vines and a whole world of opportunity and optimism. We aim to bottle that excitement.
Our wines and our ethos seek to balance respect for the land, its idiosyncrasies and foibles with modernity, boldness and innovation. At Shillingham, we are constantly moving with the tide and times.
