The dinosaur vineyard
Back open for 2025!
​​​Welcome back! We are opening again this Friday and Saturday and look forward to seeing you in the tasting barn or having a walk around the nature trail. We are renewing the row post sponsorships for 2025 so please pop up to sign up and claim a free coffee and cake while signing up or we can deliver the goods to your door.
​​
Friday 17th January 10- 3pm
Saturday 18th January 11- 5pm
​​
Looking ahead in February we are running our first two wine and food experiences! These are hosted by WSET qualified Jenni and Lizzie in the tasting barn. We will be comparing wines from around the world against English based wines and also pairing them with foods which help enhance the wine further. Both dates are now sold out but hopefully this could be start of regular food and wine tasting days!
​​
Tickets for our Friday evening tour and tastings will go on sale around mid February.
​​
If you're looking somewhere to relax and you like English still and sparkling wine, freshly ground coffee, homemade cake or local cheeses pop along to the vineyard. You can also enjoy the 1km nature trail around the vineyard.
​​​​
We're situated just outside the lovely village of Ketton on Barrowden Road, and only a ten minute drive away from the A1, A47, A43 and the beautiful market town of Stamford!

No bookings required and no entry fee to the vineyard- just come and relax!
Beautiful vineyard in Rutland producing stunning wines on Jurassic limestone soil.
Located on top of a narrow ridge between the rivers Welland and Chater, 70m above sea level and facing south we’ve got prime part of Rutland. Hard to think 160 million years ago this would have been England’s south coast! Single site vineyard planted in 2021.

Jurassic Way Wines was funded by the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development.
​
In 2021 it helped transform the old farm barn into the tasting barn you see today.
