Distinctive, story driven wines

Somerby is a small, regenerative vineyard on the chalky slopes of the Lincolnshire Wolds. We produce premium wines, rooted in the land.

Our mature vines give an excellent expression of terroir.   Offering superior concentration, complex flavours and depth.

We reject harmful man-made pesticides, fungicides, weed killers or anything else that kills bees, insects or harms the ecosystem. We opt for Biodynamic practices to ensure balance and vitality.

We don’t mind lower yields; we are driven by purity and quality

We make small batches, that are handpicked, vinified and bottled onsite.

We are within a small handful of English Vintners that are practicing in such a way, and we are even rarer in that we have our own winery onsite. 

This ensures quality, and keeps our carbon footprint extremely low.

Not imported, not mass produced, low carbon

Working in harmony with natural and cosmic rhythms, we cultivate a diverse, living ecosystem. Yields are slightly more modest, but the fruit shows deep vitality and flavour.

Through canopy stewardship, understory planting, animals, and enlivening preparations, we nurture the soil and its life forces — recognising the connection between earth, plant, and the wider rhythms that guide them.

Future

We are currently experimenting with alcohol free expressions, natural ferments and developing natural ways to preserve our delicious apples and grapes, herbs and flowers.

It is an exciting time of change at the vineyard…
