The vineyard has received numerous accolades in both national and international competitions over the years.

Recent notable awards include a Silver medal for their Tintern Parva Dathliad sparkling brut 2018 at the Welsh Wine Awards in November 2024. In November 2023, their Tintern Parva Bacchus 2019 dry white wine was awarded a Gold medal and named "Best in Class" at the Welsh National Wine Competition.

While the vineyard has produced its own wines and won many awards, a recent update from July 2025 indicates that for the current year, they have decided to sell their grapes to other Welsh vineyards and are not making wine themselves.
