“A man watches his pear tree day after day, impatient for the ripening of the fruit.  Let him attempt to force the process, and he may spoil both fruit and tree.  But let him wait, and the pear at length falls into his lap.”  Except Abraham Lincoln didn’t live where we do.    We have […]

Join us for a festive evening of wine and wreath-making at our state-of-the-art, working winery. A perfect workshop to do with friends or family in the build up to Christmas. TICKETS – Stem & Green x The Grange

Every Wednesday afternoon in December (and on the mornings of Saturday 21st December & Monday 23rd December 10am – 1pm), we will be swinging wide the winery doors to cater for your festive wine needs.

After last year’s rip-roaring success, we are going again on the ‘Makers’ Sale of Work’. There will be a fabulous array of makers on show, each laden with beautiful things to sell. We will be welcoming our marvellous makers at The Grange Winery on Thursday 28th November between 9am-3pm. Entry is free and we will […]

Join us at the vineyard to while away a few hours on a Thursday evening this summer. Every Thursday from now until mid/late September, we will be firing up the BBQ and opening the bar under the canopy at the winery from 5:30pm -8:30pm. Good vibes, wine, food, friends basking in the summer sunset!

We hope you are looking forward to a last (and possibly only?) hurrah of BBQ’s, picnics and chatting in scent-filled summer gardens and we’d love to be providing the refreshments! We’re both sorry and delighted to say that, thanks to some very strong demand from the trade, the CLASSIC NV has sold out (though you […]
