New Local Organic Wine supplier to the Melton Road


Today Kiran of Clumber Road stores and myself went to visit Ruth and John Daltry at their vineyard in South Kilworth,Leicestershire. Contrary to the weather forecast we had lovely sunshine whilst we were looking around. John and Ruth planted their first vines in 1973. They are certified organic and grow vegetables for their local box scheme as well.

After that we went into the area where the processing happens in autumn time. We saw huge crushers, vats and bottle sterilisers,



John also showed us how they put the corks on and explained that although they have 7 regular people help out, during the harvesting time, they need all hands on deck and many people come and give them a hand. If you are interested in how a good organic English wine tastes, why not come to the wine tasting at on Easter Saturday Market at Clumber Road off license and if you fancy visiting the vineyard you only need to contact John and Ruth and they will no doubt give you a warm welcome.
