    Sellers describe the sale of an established vineyard as a “rare” and it could be a good time to enter the buoyant British wine making industry.

    Henry King, farm agent at Savills in Lincoln, told Lincolnshire Live: “It is very rare that such an established vineyard and winery is brought to the market, let alone one that has such good potential to be expanded and with the ability to produce and bottle on-site.

    “With the future of UK viticulture looking rather exciting, the sale of Somerby represents a fantastic investment opportunity with the potential to further adapt or extend and create a supplementary revenue stream, such as glamping and winery tours, subject to the necessary consents.”
