It all began with an idea, born out of struggle and nurtured with passion. A dream made a reality, the boutique vineyard was planted in 2021 over 9 acres of land that has been cultivated and nurtured for centuries, and family owned by two generations.

Planted with nine different varieties, whilst the vineyard includes some of the classic “Champagne” varieties such as Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, The Shiny Vine team chose to specialise in grape varieties known to suit our cool, marginal climate, with disease resistant qualities known as “Piwis” such as ‘Cabernet Blanc’ and ‘Divico’. The Shiny Vine was also excited to be the first vineyard in England to plant the ‘Rinot’ variety which from early tastings has found to create some fantastic, full flavoured wines synonymous with Sauvignon Blanc.

Using disease resistant grape varieties that are capable of producing fantastic, delicious wines, means ‘less intervention’, ‘less chemicals’, ‘less tractor use’, lowering our carbon footprint, and more ‘love, care and attention’ to our soils and the land we are custodians over.

Our first wines for public sale will be available to buy in 2025/6. Join our mailing list to stay informed, and you’ll be the first to know!

Established in the Grange’s Coach House, the Local Artisan Delicatessen Shop & Wine Cellar strives to support all that is great in British farmed local produce, including that produced by The Shiny Vine, artisan crafts and of course tried and tasted British Wines produced by some of the greats, and those lesser known, fantastic, family owned British producers seeking to be heard and supported from across Great Britain.

The Shiny Vine shop space is set in ‘beauty, shine and sparkle’ seeking to merge the ‘old school’ with the ‘new school’ with a desire to promote diversity, flare and inclusivity at its core.

Set within the same premises are commercial spaces that have been serving Warwickshire and Leicestershire businesses for over 40 years with easy access to the M6, A5 and M69; networking, corporate events and open air team building events have never been so engaging!

Whether you’re picking up a picnic basket to enjoy by the Lakes with a significant other, taking a tour with our dynamic, slightly eccentric vineyard owner amongst the vines, or taking one of our woodland bike trails, we have you covered. You may wish to simply come and taste a selection of great British wines before taking a case home for your special event, or perhaps you simply want to come and share your story with The Shiny Vine, we’ve got you covered!

We look forward to opening to the public in May 2025 for tours, tastings and tales of The Shiny Vine!

The wider estate events including picnic and woodlands are not open to the public until 2026 as it undergoes restoration works with the wider estate. Join our mailing list to be the first to hear as events unfold as the Estate shines back to life after 20 years of inactivity.
