Just 3.5 miles from Oxford's city centre, Sunnyhill Vineyard in Horspath offers a delightful escape to a family-run, organic winery. Established a decade ago by Louise and Ilir Kebej, this charming vineyard occupies a sunny, south-facing slope, providing far-reaching views of the rolling Oxfordshire countryside. They cultivate a variety of grapes including Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier for their English Sparkling Rosé, alongside Rondo for red wine, and Seyval Blanc, Phoenix, and Orion for white wines. Committed to organic principles, all wines and ciders are produced without pesticides, additives, or chemicals, reflecting a passion for pure, naturally grown produce. Visitors can also meet the vineyard's five adorable alpacas that roam the fields, adding to the idyllic pastoral charm.
Sunnyhill Vineyard welcomes visitors for pre-booked tours and tastings, available daily, including evenings and weekends. These intimate experiences offer a look into the heart of family-run winemaking, from grape to glass, and can be complemented with local cheese and nibbles or a more substantial ploughman's lunch. Beyond wine, the vineyard produces organic sparkling cider and even offers alpaca walking experiences. On weekends, the winery is open from 10 am to 5 pm, serving cakes and refreshments, and often hosts special events like wood-fired pizza nights. With a focus on creating wines "in the purest possible way," a visit to Sunnyhill promises a unique taste of Oxfordshire's burgeoning wine scene.
