🍇 From this year’s harvest to the w**ery!

Our 2026 Pinot Noir grapes are now being processed, marking another exciting stage in this year’s harvest at Tanhurst Estate Vineyard.

There’s plenty of work behind every bottle, and it’s wonderful to see the fruits of our labour making their way towards becoming w**e. We can’t wait to see how this year’s grapes develop! 🍷

🍇 Ever wondered what this rather unusual-looking tool is doing in our w**ery?

It’s called a punch-down tool, and it has a very important job during red w**e fermentation.

As the grapes ferment, carbon dioxide pushes the grape skins, seeds and stems to the surface of the tank, creating a thick layer called the cap.

The punch-down tool is used to push this cap back down into the juice. Why? Because the grape skins contain much of the colour, flavour and tannins we want to extract into the w**e.

And those holes in the circular disc are there for an important reason. They allow the juice to flow through the tool, making it easier to push the heavy grape solids back into the fermenting w**e.

🍷 So, no crushing with feet involved! It’s all about getting the best from the grapes during fermentation.

Another little glimpse behind the scenes at Tanhurst Estate! 🌿🍇

🍇 Harvest 2026: a very promising year for English w**e 🍷

It’s been a hot and exceptionally dry summer at Tanhurst Estate, and this year’s harvest is already looking very different from last year.

So far, around 7 tonnes of grapes have been picked, including Chardonnay for still w**e and our sparkling Cuvée, Meunier for a Blanc de Noirs, and Précose for red w**e.

There’s still Pinot Noir to come, so the harvest isn’t quite finished yet – but the quality of the grapes picked so far is looking very encouraging.

After many long days in the vineyard and w**ery, we’re looking forward to seeing what this season produces.

Could 2026 be a very special year for English w**e? 🍷

⚔️ Could Tanhurst Estate be home to one of England's greatest historical mysteries?

More than 1,100 years ago, King Æthelwulf's Saxon army defeated Viking invaders in the legendary Battle of Aclea. It was one of the most significant victories of the Anglo-Saxon period – yet historians still don't know exactly where it happened.

Could the answer lie in the Surrey Hills?

Our latest blog, with the help of The Bearded Bleepers, explores the fascinating evidence linking Tanhurst Estate and the surrounding landscape to this lost battlefield. It's a captivating journey through local history, ancient place names and archaeological clues that may rewrite part of Surrey's past.

📖 Read the blog and let us know what you think. Could this historic battle really have taken place here? https://rebrand.ly/885d54
