Vineyards, Woodlands, Lakes, Artisan Farmshop & Wine Cellar
Set amongst a tranquil 100 acre Estate of gentle countryside, mature woodlands and historic lakes fed by the River Soar, sits THE SHINY VINE vineyard, perched in display of a charming Grange manor house.
Planted across 7 acres of land that has been farmed for centuries, The Shiny Vine specialises in being different, honouring differences and supporting inclusivity and diversity. This forward thinking approach shimmers across the Estate, and is also reflected in the choice of grape varieties grown in the vineyard; one of which The Shiny Vine was the first to plant in England, with high hopes and aspirations.
Join us when we open the vineyard to the public in 2025 as we share tastings, tours and tales of The Shiny Vine.

The Shiny Vine is for every one that needs a break from it all, for the wine lover and nature seeker alike.

The Shiny Vine carries the imagery of a gnarly, knot riddled vine that has risen up, survived, surpassed expectations and produces fantastic fruit with the potential to make fantastic, exciting and captivating wines. Having grown by overcoming its environment, challenges, and surviving, The Shiny Vine now wishes to give back.
If you have an outreach goal you think we’d be the perfect fit for, reach out and let us shine together!
The Shiny Vine Estate
The Shiny Vine vineyard is nestled within a Grange Estate which once formed part of the Coombe Abbey Estate many centuries ago. It is comprised of the charming Grange manor house, The Shiny Vine Vineyards, Artisan Wine & Farm shop, Wine Cellars and Orchard, all framed amongst gentle countryside, ancient woodland and lakes fed by the River Soar.
There are also commercial offices on site, which have been serving the needs of local businesses across Warwickshire and Leicestershire for over 40 years given its prime location next to the A5, M69 and M6. With the addition of The Shiny Vine, networking and corporate events has never been more engaging!

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 7 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 2024. Join our mailing list to stay informed, and you’ll be the first to know!

Established in the Grange’s Coach House, the Artisan Farmshop & Wine Cellar strives to support all that is great in British locally farmed 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.

We look forward to opening to the public in 2024 for tours, tastings and tales of The Shiny Vine!
One Story
