WHITE HERON ESTATE TOURS

Our exclusive White Heron Estate food and drink tours can either be on foot or by e-bike.

WALKING TOUR- explore our three different crops - Sparkling Wine from our vineyards; Cider from our Apple Orchards; and British Cassis from our blackcurrants - and hear about the wider business of our farming, the story of agriculture today, the family and why they came Herefordshire. Finish with a tasting in the vineyards of all our products.  You can add an offgrid ploughmans or a more gourmet meal as required. This will be set in our beautiful tent at the top of a vineyard where you will sit on rough hewn oak from a fallen farm tree.

E-BIKE TOUR - adventure the farm with one of our managers to have a big picture view of what we do.  The E-bike tour gives you the opportunity to see more of the farm and the landscape and can be as adventurous as you choose with some of the routes being a little more challenging than others.  As with the walking tour you will hear about our farm and our diversifications as well as the history of the Estate and more about farming and Herefordshire beyond.  Again - end with a tasting, a cocktail and/or a meal set in our beautiful vineyard tent  jo@whiteherondrinks.co.uk

  • Visit our small Cassiserie where you will be taken through the steps of manufacture
  • Bottle your own Cassis which you will take home with you at the end of the day (this can be subject as whether the bottling line is operating at the time of the tour).
  • Enjoy a cocktail demonstration and sample the results in our beautiful striped field tent
  • Hear how founder and farmer Jo Hilditch manages a vibrant fruit farm and drinks business (amongst other pursuits) and how she battled Dragons on the road to success!

140 Years of Passion

Sweet at first taste, before the irresistibly sharp after-kick, British Cassis is the perfect aperitif served straight, over ice, twists beautifully into fizzing champagne or prosecco and is decadent in cocktails.
