We can only accomodate groups under 12 people.
- RESERVATIONS ARE REQUIRED to visit the winery for a tasting. Due to limited space and capacity restrictions, each guest wishing to visit Sandbanks for a tasting must make a reservation. Our friendly staff have allotted 45 mins for your tasting to ensure there is plenty of time for purchasing and proper sanitization.
