They've also just released The Duke's Reserve brandy.
Denbies Wine Estate, near Dorking
From Santa Express rides to Christmas party packages and indulgent dinners with all the trimmings, as well as wine tastings, of course, add a little extra Surrey Hills sparkle to your festive season among the vines at Denbies Wine Estate. And, if you want to get away from it all, book in a cosy stay at their Vineyard Hotel.
