We are very pleased to share an extract from the Shropshire Star where Robert Boutflower from Tanners Wine Merchants gives Rodington Vineyard a very special mention regarding the success of English Wines:
“Robert Boutflower of Shrewsbury-based wine merchant Tanners, says English sparkling wine in particular is able to compete with the best that other European countries can produce.
Mr Boutflower singles out the Rodington vineyard, just outside Telford, for particular praise, saying that its Blue Tractor wine, which used Solaris grapes, is worthy of special mention.”
"The Rodington vineyard has only been planted five or six years ago, and it is already making a seriously good white," he says.
"It took a silver medal last year in an international wine competition for its 2014 vintage, and it deserved to do so.
"It is such a good, well-balanced wine."
