ABOUT US

A Derbyshire Vineyard  

We have been around since 2011 and we are a small family run business close to the edge of the Peak District in the lovely village of Wessington in the beautiful Amber Valley.  We aim to produce great quality local wines that say something about our beautiful location and to be a great visitor attraction and community asset.
Our sustainability credentials are second to none  - we use solar, wind and battery storage to provide our power needs, our facilities include a compost loo and even our disposable glassware, where we need to use them, are compostable and we have moved to fully-recyclable protective cardboard for shipping our wines.  We also grow our vines sustainably and use organic techniques so we don't use herbicides or any pesticides that aren't organically acceptable. 
We employ a small local team of part-time dedicated staff and occasionally look for more people to work for us - keep an eye on our jobs page.

Who We Are

We love what we do and it shows. The owner and MD is Barry Lewis (pictured above), who was once the Chief Executive of Wine GB the national growers body for the English and Welsh wines industry.  As an industry expert he loves to communicate his love of the industry and he leads all the tours and tastings. 

Family Run

We are a small family run business, we welcome people on our tours, open our cellar door to visitors and events.  My wife and daughter support all the activities we do at our cellar door shop and pop-up bar. And we have great and dedicated local staff who help us keep the vineyard & business in fine fettle.

Award Winning

Our 2016 Lindway White won a highly Commended at the International Wine Challenge (IWC) competition on our first competition outing.  Then in 2021 we were delighted to win a IWC Bronze Medal for our first sparkling wine, Lindway Brook 2018.

Our Wines

Our wines are simply delicious. We make a small range of wines but we make them well.  Our Millstone Solaris is a dry white, and Elsa Pink is a off-dry Provencal style rosé and our delicious Lindway Brook is our award winning sparkling.
