Simon Woodhead planted the vineyard in 2007 with 21,000 vines. Inspired by wines from Alsace, the still white wine varieties of Pinot Gris and Pinot Blanc dominate. Bacchus, Auxerrois, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Dornfelder are also planted allowing us to create still white and rosé wines as well some bottles of sparkling.

Vine growing Stopham Vineyard

Our winery, an old Victorian farm barn in the village, is currently being renovated for this October 2010's harvest. We hope to produce 15,000 bottles this year, although this should increase to 35,000 bottles on average each year once the vines are fully established.
