Offbeat Wines

What's the vibe?

Offbeat Wines is a small, independent English wine producer based in Wiltshire, focused on experimental, small-batch wines made with a minimal-intervention mindset. The emphasis is on creativity, hands-on winemaking, and producing wines that reflect individual vintages and approaches rather than a fixed house style.

Tours and Tastings: Offbeat Wines does not operate regular public opening hours. Visits, tastings, and cellar door sales are available by prior arrangement only and must be booked in advance.

Availability for tastings or events varies, and visitors are advised to contact Offbeat Wines directly to enquire about possible visit dates.

Offbeat Wines produces a small range of English wines in limited quantities, including still wines and pét-nat styles. Winemaking is carried out with a low-intervention approach, allowing each wine to develop naturally with minimal handling.

Wine production takes place on site at Botley’s Farm. The focus is on experimentation and flexibility rather than a fixed portfolio, and wines may vary from year to year depending on fruit and conditions.
