Kinross is a Must

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 4 weeks ago
We booked for lunch and wasn’t able to book a tasting online. When we arrived they organised a tasting while were eating the most amazing pizza I have eaten. Dingying was the most amazing wine sommelier who took us through so many wines and so knowledgeable. She showed us so many different wines we were not aware of & her insights meant we got a whole new appreciation for the region. We had the most time at Kinross and they show case great food and wine. It’s a must visit.

Thank you for your kind words! We’re so glad you enjoyed the incredible pizza and had such a memorable tasting experience with Dingying. It’s wonderful to hear her knowledge brought a deeper appreciation for our wines and region. We’d love to host you again in the future. Kind regards, Team Kinross

    Kinross hosted our Xmas party and it was unanimous that the food and service was amazing. The venue was perfect for a big group and we all had a ball. There was plenty of space for us and other groups on the day and we never felt cramped or rushed. Great start to the Xmas season.

    What a charming place. Our cottage, Ruins 1, was delightful, very cosy, extremely well equipped, with kitchenette and a lovely modern bathroom. It was all spotless and worked very well. We enjoyed the breakfast boxes which were included in our booking, the food was plentiful and of high quality. We ordered pizzas from the Bistro for our first night dinner and they were delicious.
    We also had a wine tasting included in our stay. This was delivered by Megan, who was very knowledgeable and friendly. It was fun doing the tasting with other residents.
    Although we didn't make much use of them, there were plenty of areas to explore on the site, and having a picnic would have beenovely. We did enjoy a game of petanque.
    All the staff were immensely friendly and professional.
    Generally would thoroughly recommend. Just one tiny tiny niggle, both at check-in and checkout, the computer system seemed rather unhelpful, which should be easily sorted.

    Room tip: The Ruins cottages are furthest from the centre, so great to avoid noise etc, and a lovely view over the vines

    Kinross Wine Tasting was an excellent experience. Our sommelier was very knowledgable and tailored the tasting to suit us. The wines were delicious, Kinross has such a brilliant range of wines, it’s so nice to be able to try the different vineyards.
    Would highly recommend!

    We visited the Kinross winery for lunch today. It is a lovely scenic winery. It was a cool windy day & the outdoor seating was comfortable with a huge wood burning fireplace & plenty of heating lamps. The food was great. The 2 pizzas we ordered ( mushroom & salami) the potato focaccia with olive oil & an olive dip (dip was exceptional) and the desert sampler were all delicious. The Riesling & pinot noir we drank were great as well.
    Our server (a delightful young man from France) was outstanding.
    It was a lovely lunch in a scenic setting with good food, wine & service.
