Great day. Relaxing, interesting, and a lovely setting. A hidden gem. Did not know this vineyard was in Bedford. Great wines!

Discover our wine
We aim to produce award-winning quality still white wines each year, supplemented by a sparkling blend when conditions favour.
Bacchus 2019
We only make Bacchus in the best years. Warden Abbey Bacchus 2019 is our first since the 2015 vintage which won a bronze medal in both the 2017 Decanter World Wide Awards and UK Wine Awards. The 2019 is still young and will continue to develop over the coming year.
The Reformer 2018
Sister wine to our hugely popular Novicemaster. Its refreshing acidity gives rapier like precision and purity.
Warden Abbey Brut 2019
The start of the palate is bright with a mix of citrus fruits. A pear and tropical fruit influence gives a sweet feel to the mid palate, nice depth of flavour with lime and apple at the back refreshing the long finish. Gentle, fine bubbles.

We had a lovely day at the vineyard picnic on Sunday – the volunteers were really friendly and helpful, it was great set up. It sparked my son’s interest in volunteering at the vineyard as well.
