Destination: 'All Saints, Rutherglen’
All Saints is one of Rutherglen’s oldest and most historically significant
wineries. Established in 1864 by two enterprising Scots, George Sutherland
and John Banks, the distinctive winery building was built in the 1880’s and
based on the design of The Castle of Mey in Caithness, complete with towers
and turrets. Today the castle and gardens have been faithfully restored by
the current owners, led by the dynamic Eliza Brown. As well as producing
the classic Tokays and Muscats, All Saints are equally well known today for
their award winning range of table wines.

100 year old casks filled with rare Tokays and Muscats. Winemaker Dan Crane and owner Eliza Brown will host a tasting of rare fortifieds and table wines including local specialities Marsanne and Durif.
