About Stonepit Vineyard
Stonepit Vineyard is nestled near the historic market town of Olney in North Buckinghamshire. Our story began in April 2018 when John and Fiona planted the vineyard on a gently sloping, south-facing field with a limestone bed. The name “Stonepit” Vineyard originates from the farm’s original name before it was renamed Rectory Farm. After nurturing the vines for several years, we harvested our first vintage in April 2021.
Our goal is to produce boutique wines, including white, red, rosé, and from summer 2024, sparkling white and rosé. Our white wine is made from the Bacchus grape, our red from the Regent grape, and our rosé from a combination of both. We’re thrilled to have won gold medals for our white and rosé wines, with the latter featured on BBC Radio’s Bill Buckley Show.
Our bottle labels feature a charming illustration of our vines, Olney town bridge, and the church. Take a closer look at the clock tower – it’s always nearly six o’clock somewhere!

A delightful union of Regent and Pinot Noir, the Flying Pig red blend is a light and fruit-forward wine crafted with finesse by winemaker Steve Brooksbank.

Amber Valley Amara Pinot Noir Précoce 2023 (6 Bottles) Wessington, Derbyshire, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
Amber Valley Pinot Noir Précoce 2023 is an exceptional expression of Midlands-grown Pinot Noir Précoce, crafted as a collaborative masterpiece between Amber Valley Wines and talented winemaker Jack Abbotts at Three Choirs Vineyard.
It displays a vibrant ruby hue with garnet reflections. The nose is elegant and aromatic, showcasing morello cherries, ripe red fruits, and a subtle hint of blackberries. Delicate spiced notes of allspice and vanilla emerge, layered with earthy undertones that hint at its barrel maturation.
On the palate, the wine is beautifully balanced, with a soft, velvety texture and graceful tannins. The red fruit core is complemented by gentle spice and a whisper of oak-driven vanilla. The acidity is well-integrated, offering freshness while supporting the wine’s structure.
The malolactic fermentation and oak ageing contribute to a rounded, harmonious body with a touch of complexity. The finish is long and refined, with lingering notes of cherry, spice, and a touch of earthiness that promises graceful ageing potential.
A versatile partner, it pairs perfectly with rosemary roast lamb, game dishes, grilled pork, roast salmon, or earthy mushroom-based cuisine. Its elegance and structure also make it a delightful wine to savor on its own. This is a stunning Midlands Pinot Noir Précoce, showcasing exceptional terroir and meticulous craftsmanship, offering both immediate pleasure and the potential for further development.
Giffords Hall St Edmundsbury Red Blend 2022 (6 Bottles) Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, England

Our award winning red is a vibrant blend of Pinot Noir and Rondo which takes its name from the historic St Edmundsbury Cathedral which once grew vines within its abbey walls. In the medieval period, a third of the tithe to Rome was paid in hogsheads of wine. It is this heritage which has inspired our best-selling English red.
A rich purple inky hue with aromas of vanilla, blackcurrant and toasted spices followed by a vibrant brambly palate with underlying savoury notes on the finish.
Langham Pinot Noir 2019 (6 Bottles) Dorchester, Dorset, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
A truly individual wine. Ten barrels of pinot noir from the 2019 vintage demanded to be bottled as a special release. Powerful on the nose with notes of forest floor and red cherry more typical of a red pinot than sparkling. Oak fermentation and ageing lend the wine spice and structure on the palate.
Melbury Vale Batch #02 The Signature (6 Bottles) Shaftesbury, Dorset, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
When Melbury Vale first built their winery, that vintage yielded a very small crop of what became the original Signature wine. It was a one-off bottling that represented a light fruity red wine that could be enjoyed throughout the summertime. Fast forward a few years later and our winemaker, through some blending trials, found that some of the 2018 red blend mixed with the 2018 rosé wine in tank created a juicy, fruity, flavorful light red we couldn’t stop sipping. The 2018 rosé was slightly different from the 2019 Virtue we bottled, so we decided to use the rosé in a fun, experimental way. While it’s not typical to blend red and rosé wine, once the blending started we felt like we had created something novice wine lovers all the way to oenophiles would enjoy and appreciate. On the nose you immediately pick up notes of wild cherry, fig, and bramble, while the palate is a burst of cranberry, pomegranate, and hibiscus. Best served slightly chilled, this is a crowd pleaser and is a great base wine for a party jug of a sangria type wine cocktail.
Food Pairings: charcuterie spread with cured meats, hard cheeses, grilled peppers, artichokes, and olives. Could also stand up to any dark chocolate dessert because of the bright fruitiness. Also try with balsamic macerated berries.
