A VERY SPECIAL POUR ✨

A few weeks ago, we welcomed some of our mailing list members for something very special…

The exclusive launch of NEBULA our very first ‘The Shiny Vine’ w**e. 🥂✨

Many of the attendees have followed us since we planted our vineyard in 2021 (even before we officially opened our doors to the public in 2025), many have laughed, danced and supported us on numerous events, with w**es regularly bought and support offered.

Back in 2021, we planted our first vines on our Leicester Grange Estate and to now see some of those grapes transformed into a w**e we can finally share with you, is an INCREDIBLE milestone and addition to our journey 💫🥂

And what a way to CELEBRATE! Over 200 of you arrived to our intimate private event to try our first ever w**e with us, hear a few words from our Estate owner and celebrate with us with…

☀️ Perfect summer sunshine
🍕 Incredible pizzas from Simply Doughlicious
🥂 NEBULA flowing
✨ And the BEST company

NEBULA is fresh, crisp and REFRESHING, with delectable notes of elderflower, orange blossom and fresh peach made dry yet fruity in style from a blend of Solaris, Ortega, Rinot & Bacchus grapes. Delicate, VIBRANT and made for easy drinking. 🍑🌼 This w**e is already popular with our Sauvignon Blanc lovers out there, and even those who aren’t!

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who joined us for this very special FIRST taste, and to everyone who has supported The Shiny Vine from those very first vines to their first case! 🌿🍇

It means more than you know. 💫✨

And now… we turn our attention to the next chapter.

HARVEST 2026… COMING SOON. 🍇🌿👀

Here’s to NEBULA and to many more bottles to come. 🥂

Our very FIRST w**e, made from grapes grown from last year’s harvest and we couldn’t be more EXCITED to finally share it with you!

Nebula is the Latin word for cloud - cosmic structures that span interstellar space, acting as both the birthplace and survival battleground of NEW stars. 🌌⭐️

And just like the formation of stars, something pretty SPECIAL has come together here… 💫

🍇 From vine to grape, togetherness shines!

The Shiny Vine presents NEBULA - our first EVER dry white w**e! 🌟

A 50% blend of Solaris, Ortega & the lesser known Rinot, grown on the historic Leicester Grange Estate on the border of Warwickshire & Leicestershire, blended with 50% Bacchus, England’s shining star of a grape. ✨

And the result?
Fresh. Crisp. Easy drinking. ABSOLUTELY delicious. 🍑🥂

Expect sumptuous notes of elderflower, orange blossom & fresh peaches, the perfect bottle for sunshine, slow afternoons and glasses that somehow keep getting topped up. 🥂✨
