About Laurel Vines
Laurel Vines is a unique, low-carbon, and environmentally conscious vineyard with an on-site winery, nestled in the rural hamlet of Aike, East Yorkshire, between the market towns of Beverley and Driffield. Our vineyard sits on soils underlain by Cretaceous Chalk, a porous limestone rich in calcium carbonate, which creates ideal conditions for vine cultivation. These well-structured, permeable soils retain moisture while ensuring excellent drainage, enabling us to produce high-quality yields regardless of weather conditions.
Since launching in 2013, we have expanded both our knowledge and scale, producing over 10 vintages and continuously refining our craft. In 2022, we proudly introduced our first sparkling wine, made using the traditional Champagne method—a skilled, labour-intensive process our team mastered through dedicated training and research.
Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. We practise gentle pruning techniques to ensure vine longevity and use organic pest and fertiliser treatments to minimise reliance on agrochemicals. Managing every step of production, from grape harvest to bottling, we are committed to delivering exceptional quality in every bottle.
At Laurel Vines, we take pride in our innovative approach, creating wines that reflect the unique terroir of our region while respecting the environment. From still to sparkling wines, our passion and dedication shine through, offering something truly distinctive to wine lovers.

Character: Light, Fruit-forward
Aromas: Cherry, Wild Strawberry, Spice
Flavours: Red Fruits, Gentle Oak
Style: A light and summery English Red.
Food Pairing: Pair with lamb, game, or enjoy on its own.
A pale red Pinot Noir, the colour is deceptive, not revealing the powerful red fruits hidden within. Full of wild red fruit characters on the nose, the palate is soft, with intense red cherry and gentle spice from the time spent on oak. The perfect red for summer, ideal with a BBQ.
Winemaker's Notes: Just the ripest Pinot Noir was used for this light red. The grapes were crushed and fermented partly in tank and partly in barrel. Throughout the ferment regular pump overs were conducted to extract a little more colour and weight. The oaked proportion of the blend then spent a further 12 months in oak before being bottled.
Wine: Still Red
Grape Variety: Pinot Noir
Body: Light
Sweetness: Dry
Alcohol: 12%
