Louma Vineyard

Louma Vineyard

Louma is a Dorset country hotel with its own vineyard, where staying guests can book a guided tasting of its sparkling wines.

Louma's vines are planted in two named blocks, the Top Vineyard and the Bottom Vineyard. Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay grow in both, and the Top Vineyard carries two further varieties. Guests arrive down a driveway through an open area called Harvest, which is planted with trees and seasonal crops and used as pasture for sheep and cows, and the estate points out the view on the way down over the vineyards and to the sea.

Only guests staying on site can join a tasting. The sparkling tasting is guided and served with the seasonal cheeseboard for a minimum of two guests, and a separate guided tour through the vines ends with a tasting in the Wine Cellar.
