Even with a fear of heights this vineyard is worth visiting. The vista is amazing and not packed with the tourist crowd or bus loads. The wine itself? Perfect 😀

Chard Farm does not have a charge for wine tasting . If you are not purchasing any wine on the day we do appreciate a donation towards our recycling program. We look forward to your visit.
