The process of biodynamic farming implemented at Burn Cottage involves more than just organic farming. It incorporates a philosophical aspect, adhering to the theories advanced by Rudolf Steiner—an early 20th-century philosopher and scientist. This ethical approach to agriculture seeks to create a diversified and balanced farm ecosystem that is sustainable, enriches the soil, and nurtures the livestock without any artificial inputs.

At Burn Cottage, they firmly believe that exquisite wine begins in the ground. Carefully cultivating their grapes in their distinct terroir, and employing exacting winemaking techniques enables them to create highly expressive wines that perfectly encapsulate their passion for the land.

Renowned for their Pinot Noir, a favourite worldwide; Burn Cottage also offers a Savoury Reserve Wine and an intriguing Moonlight Race Pinot Noir, named after a southern watercourse running through the region.
