Ballycroft Wines

The Red Room Lyndoch Hotel
Ballycroft was created from the idea of combining two old Gaelic words: ‘baile’ meaning small town or village and ‘croft’ meaning a small piece of arable land. The rain fed vineyard, hand planted in 1998, sits on a sloping 15-acre property in Greenock. The first vintage of small berry Shiraz was produced in 2005. In January 2016 the Tasting Room, once the production room for a cheesery was opened. In 2018 the winery, Purpose built for their small needs was finished. It uses rainwater solely and runs on solar power. Ballycroft wine is made as a reflection of their sustainable vineyard, the terroir and the individual vintage. Therefore you are to expect some variation from year to year and this will be evident in the final product. Our philosophy at Ballycroft is to let the fruit tell the story.
