Knightor Estate: A Unique Wedding Venue

Located near St. Austell Bay in the picturesque Cornish countryside, Knightor Estate is a working winery that also serves as a charming wedding and events venue. The estate features historic granite barns and spans 4 acres of lush Cornish hedgerows, orchards, and pastures. Knightor Winery is dedicated to producing premium English still and sparkling wines, crafted with care and innovation.

Ideal Conditions for Exceptional Wines

Each year, Knightor Winery creates a variety of blends and single varietal wines, often producing fewer than 2,000 bottles of each. This limited production allows the grapes to thrive, resulting in wines that are fermented and aged in oak barrels for optimal depth and balance. The cooler climate of the Cornish countryside contributes to lighter, fruitier wines with refreshing acidity. Notable offerings include Bacchus 2018, Carpe Diem Red, Carpe Diem Rosé, and the popular Knightor Brut Classic Cuvée White.

Crafting High-Quality Vermouth

After years of research, Knightor has expanded its portfolio to include a selection of high-quality English Vermouths, made from the estate’s wines and local herbs. These vermouths boast rich aromas and flavors, making them an excellent choice for cocktails or as a delightful aperitif.

Glorious wines! Really great spot for a tasting. Flight of 5 wines served and very good value. The setting is beautiful but casual enough for a fun Saturday afternoon outing. We ended up taking 6 bottles home. Wish we'd anticipated spending more time here; if you're doing the tasting maybe plan on an hour to allow time to enjoy each wine and shop around. They sometimes offer food as well, which looked really great!

Becky and I had a wonderful wedding day at Knightor. From the planning meeting right through to the actual day the team were helpful, courteous and professional. The venue is stunning and a beautiful background to our wedding photos. We would highly recommend the experience.

Went there for a wedding. Staff was very friendly, polite & very helpful making sure I could get around in my wheelchair. Food was stunning, can't comment on the wine as I don't drink alcohol.
