Here at Knightor there are two things we know well, wine and weddings and we also know that the two take careful consideration and pairing. Whether you are planning your wedding at our winery, or further afield at a venue across the country we are delighted to now offer a wine service to help you choose the best wine for your day.
An exceptional take on a classic aperitif, our Knightor vermouth selection is not to be missed! From our winery in mid Cornwall, we blend white, dry and rose vermouth using a carefully crafted recipe of quality ingredients and our English wines. Aromatic and full of bold flavours, our vermouths are created from only our finest grapes and a carefully crafted recipe of complex herbs and spices, many of which are picked in and around Knightor.
Our collection of English wines and vermouth are incredibly versatile and beautifully compliment a number of classic and contemporary cocktails. Here are a few of our favourite recipes, created with locally sourced ingredients and our favourite spirits from Cornwall, the South West and beyond. From celebratory toasts to detox mocktails, there's a drink for any event.
Knightor is a very special, timelessly Cornish venue. We are licensed for wedding ceremonies, civil partnerships, renewal of vows and naming ceremonies, and we work with you to personalise your special day, knowing that every detail counts. Set in four acres of vineyards, pasture and orchards, our historic granite barns provides the perfect location for large, small and intimate ceremonies.

The service in the shop was very poor. We visited whilst there was a tasting in progress but at the time the member of staff was behind the counter and not interacting with the guests but chatting to someone sitting with him. There was no welcome or interaction, in fact I felt quite awkward so asked whether I was supposed to be there. When I Asked if there were any samples available, I was told I needed to buy a glass. If that is company policy I do understand however I didn’t need a full glass,. I purely wanted a tasting. When I told him I didn’t need a full glass he told me there may be some

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!

My son had his wedding here, an amazing venue, ceremony outside with the lake in the back ground, such a great setting. Then the court yard & inside the main building are great areas to mingle. The staff are fantastic, nothing too much trouble. Food was great quilty. The house on the grounds is good to stay in too after a busy day, & can sleep several. A great wedding venue.

Great food, not sure if true but told the chef from Astells works here now. It is that good! It's not at all pretentious, so don't worry about it being a winery. The wine is fab but the food and staff are excellent. We have done the fish and fiz and the valentine's night, both outstanding... Give it a try
