An Inspiring Vineyard Visit

Ahead of a feature for International Women's Day 2026, Wine Experience took a trip this week to see winemaker Adderley Pelly at Stopham Vineyard in West Sussex. Stopham’s delicious still and sparkling wines are the embodiment of Adderley’s philosophy- hopefulness, dedication, hard work and freedom to express and I’m really excited to see what Adderley creates from the 2025 vintage, including her first red from the Pinot Noir grape. I was also thrilled to meet my new favourite vineyard dog, the gorgeous Blondie!
