The Wine Farm is where we grow the wine we want to drink and
the food we want to eat. It's where our kids get muddy, our dog
can howl without upsetting the neighbours and we can breathe.
In 2014, having fallen for the region in general and the potential of its grapes in particular, we took the biggest plunge so far. We poured our joint worldly effects into a small patch of dirt down the road. An unassuming address we thought might just have everything we needed to start creating our own little world. Good soil, eight thousand vines, a great big shed and lots of bedrooms to fill.

Buying an existing vineyard without really knowing its potential is something you could lose a lot of sleep over.

Great wine is the sum of hundreds of decisions from vineyard to bottle. As the ‘maker’ all I do is try to make the best decision I can at any particular point in time.
MoreWe now have three vintages under our belt with the 2016 range and a few 2015s available here. Have a browse and please shoot us an email if you have any questions. And sign up to our mailing list to hear when new wines become available to try and buy and the odd bit of other news from time to time.

We also like to source and drink beautiful, hard-to-find wines from small (usually French) producers at the height of their craft, and share them with kindred spirits via an informative weekly email.

Drinking the wine’s not enough for you? Want to sleep by the vines, wake up to the birds and watch Neil head out at sparrow’s for another day’s hard graft? Maybe give him a hand?
