About Hencote

This historic Shropshire vineyard sprawls across 65 acres and doubles as a luxury country retreat, so you can stay overnight and really commit to the wine thing. They're growing seven grape varieties to produce still and sparkling wines, plus they welcome kids, host events, and offer tours if you want to know what's actually going on in those vines.
