A TRADITION OF HANDCRAFTED WINES

Our philosophy at Bothy Vineyard is to produce the highest quality wines from grapes cultivated in as environmentally-friendly a way as possible. We continue an ancient tradition of wine making in the Vale of the White Horse, Oxfordshire. The local micro-climate, warm sandy soils, long ripening season and mature vines produce wines of consistent depth and  quality which have won many awards.
Visit us to experience the freshness and character of English wine at its best.

Buying our Wines

Sales by appointment - please ring 01865 390067 to arrange a purchase.
  • The 2018 Renaissance (soft, peachy and complex) is just reaching its peak. A fab vintage for the Ortega grape that makes up this wine. Perfect for accompanying your Christmas feasting.
  • Our 2018 Oxford Dry and Doctor's Bacchus - dry, crisp and fruity. Taste them at our shop
  • The fruity and soft 2016 Cote Bothy, a rare English red, is just the thing for red-wine lovers who want to avoid the high-alcohol burn.
  • Don't throw away your used corks in landfill. Bring them to the shop and we make sure that they are recycled and up-cycled for a good cause
Plus lots of wine-related cards and gifts.

Corks, corks and more corks

For every natural cork recycled through Bothy Vineyard, over 1p will go towards protecting local wildlife.  If you can help, then please send your corks to us or drop them off at the Marcham Shop.
