Ben Cowley
Ben knows the seasons and the land better than any, this is his soil, these are his vines, his grapes. He lives here on the vineyard and is totally and utterly in touch with the land and the weather. He knows when to harvest and when to take risks. This is his family land and no one knows it better than him. “Wine with provenance is created from quality fruit grown in a distinctive terroir”. Ben believes in growing grapes of the highest quality that truly reflect the individuality of Auntsfield Estate.
“A culture of searching for differences within the vineyard has allowed us to focus on individual parcels of fruit which display unique expressions of the physical characteristics of Auntsfield Estate. It’s my job to nurture these differences and help develop their expression through to the final wine”.
