Vine and Wine
In stock


A fabulous gift for a wine lover or keen gardener our vines are strong and healthy 3-year old plants which should produce their first proper harvest next year. They have filled out beautifully over the summer with lots of vibrant foliage, which is taking on its autumnal colours or starting to fall away in readiness for winter. It's a great time of year to buy a vine - plant them out in the garden now so that they are established and ready to put on loads of fresh new growth in the spring.
STOP PRESS We're delighted to have partnered with Virgin wines this year and have 2 new delicious wines to accompany our grapevines. A fruity and easy drinking red Merlot and a super tasty and fresh Sicilian wine called 'Just the Juice'
Choose your favourite vine and wine from the drop down menus. For white grapevines we have chardonnay, phoenix and johanniter vines, or for red there is rondo. If you prefer them pink then the Chasselas rosé vine is for you!
Note: Customer and recipient must both be over 18.



A beautiful gift for a wine lover which will keep them raising a glass to you for years to come!

All fine.

My friend was chuffed to bits at the thought of growing her own grapes. The added wine gave her a laugh and some motivation!

Good quality plant and bottle of wine, which both arrived carefully packaged

Anything I have ordered has been top drawer. Amazing service and product.

Product was delivered in excellent condition and exactly what we expected.

Good and acceptable

Excellent but £15 for a bottle of wine? Not sure about the wine’s quality but could be good value but

Too early to tell if it will produce the grapes wanted but it looks a healthy plant.

Excellent gift. Well packaged and presented. Healthy plant.

Grape Vines are surprisingly well suited to the UK climate. In the right spot they are vigorous growers and can produce heavy crops of fruit from August to October.
Your grapevine will do best in a sunny but sheltered spot, ideally south facing with shaded or cool roots in summer. Grapevines need to be protected from cold winds, but they are fairly frost hardy and will put on fresh and vigorous leaf growth in the spring. Vines do well in a variety of soils but chalky and silty soils are prized by wine makers for the subtle flavours they add to the wine. Please check the label on your vine for more specific details on grape variety and suitable positions for your vine.
Ideally your grapevine should be transplanted shortly after arrival either into a larger pot or barrel or into the ground. Grapevines can be planted at almost any time of year as long as the ground is frost free. Before planting, submerge the pot in a bucket of water for 10 minutes and add a top dressing of seaweed feed or fish, blood and bone to help it get settled in. If you want to keep your vine in its existing pot for a little longer for whatever reason, it will need regular watering, and will appreciate some ordinary liquid feed.
To get the best fruit from your grapevine, you do need to start pruning it next year. The results are well worth the effort!
Problem Solving:
Mildew is the most likely problem with grapevines but many of the newer varieties have a good resistance. Mildew is caused by prolonged damp conditions or by irregular watering, if your plant is in a pot try moving it to a sunnier position and always train it to encourage airflow round each branch.
Grapevines are deciduous so don't be alarmed if it drops its leaves over the winter.
Different varieties are better suited to wine making or eating but don't forget the more sunshine the fruits receive the sweeter the grapes will taste.
