The dinosaur vineyard
Sunny week and a Sunday opening (especially for you runners)!
With another sunny week ahead it's a great time to come and see the vineyard before it jumps into life! We are also open this Sunday as a one-off. To celebrate the Rutland Half Marathon being run on Sunday if you are running it and bring your finisher's medal to the vineyard we'll reward you with a free glass of English sparkles and some cake to say well done on completing 13.1 miles!
​
Thank you everyone who has purchased summer tour tickets! They are starting to sell out now which we are very grateful for. You can purchase tickets online for our Winosaurus tours which run every Friday from early May until September 6-8pm. A must for wine lovers and those who want to see why English wine is on the up!
​​
You’ll be welcomed with English sparkles and find out what we’re up to. We’ll then go for a wonder into the vines to see how the next vintage is getting on before returning to the tasting barn to try some delicious wines. Tickets can be purchased via this website under ‘Tickets for events’ and choosing the Winosaurus option and the date you would like!
​​​
We also have a few row post sponsorships left for 2025. Drop us an email for more details.

Beautiful vineyard in Rutland producing stunning wines on Jurassic limestone soil.
Located on top of a narrow ridge between the rivers Welland and Chater, 70m above sea level and facing south we’ve got prime part of Rutland. Hard to think 160 million years ago this would have been England’s south coast! Single site vineyard planted in 2021.
