Our ‘adopt a vine’ gift pack gives wine lovers the opportunity to oversee their very own part of the Hencote vineyard. Winemaking is a lengthy, complex and, at times, challenging process, but when the hard work and determination that goes into it pays off, it is an incredibly rewarding experience. Buy a vine adoption package for a friend, family member or colleague and treat them to an active role in this process.
The lucky recipient will receive a range of vine gifts: a certificate of vine adoption, a guided summer vineyard tour for two, an invitation to participate in the harvest of their adopted vine, and a bottle of Hencote wine from their adopted vine. It is an all-encompassing experience that gives you the chance to engage with the whole gamut of the Hencote winemaking process: from harvesting to bottling.
Our deluxe vine adoption package is even more comprehensive. On top of everything else, you’ll also get a full case of six wines from your adopted vines, an invitation to a picnic for two on our vineyard – which includes a hamper of fresh, locally-sourced produce and a bottle of wine – as well as an invitation to a summer event at Hencote.
It is the ideal gift for anyone with a passion for wine, and a genuine interest in getting an illuminating, behind-the-scenes look at the challenges and complexities of producing wine in the Shropshire countryside. The opportunity to engage with the adopted vine at different stages of its development gives recipients an appreciation for the sheer breadth of work that goes into the production of every single bottle of Hencote wine.
“We had a great day. Could not fault anything.”
We had a great day. Could not fault anything. Lovely wines, delicious food and brilliant hosts. We are lucky to have this facility on our doorstep and can't wait until the restaurant opens. Highly recommended.

“I have just returned home after a wonderful stay at Hencote.”
From the moment I reached Hencote with its beautiful surroundings I began to relax. Hencote itself is pure luxury. The sumptuous bed, free standing bath and gorgeous fluffy towels were my personal favourites!

“Thank you so much for the amazing hospitality.”
The care and attention showed by the fabulous team. Luxurious yet homely feel to the accommodation. Thank you so much for the amazing hospitality. I could stay here for a month/year! I don’t think that I have ever felt so relaxed!
