We are over the moon that our red wine Warhorse has been selected by esteemed wine writer Fiona Beckett as her ‘Wine of the Week’. Fiona is one of the country’s top wine authorities and is perhaps best known for her Guardian wine column. Read the review here, then call us to place a contactless order for a bottle of Warhorse to try for yourself!

Our two acre vineyard (0.48 hectare under vine) is located in the village of Rothley. We are located between the Rothley Court Hotel and the G.C.R. Railway. The boutique winery installed new equipment to ensure quality production and comply with relevant standards. We can accommodate small groups of up to eight in our conservatory tasting room. See a review in the Leicester Mercury.
We are getting known in English wine circles, see Great British Wine and in a feature in Niche magazine here.
BBC Radio Leicester have done 5 interviews.
