Event Information
Denbies have kindly permitted us rare access to the rows of vines within one of the UK’s largest and best known vineyards, an experience not usually afforded to the general public.
The vineyard lies on the Eastern slopes of Ranmore Common just outside Dorking and is overlooked by Boxhill to the East.
