Oatley: old vines, red soil, delicate dry white wines that have been winning international awards for 20 years

Oatley is a small but ambitious Somerset vineyard, deep in the west of England countryside. We planted Kernling and Madeleine Angevine vines in 1986 on mineral-rich, red soil. Since our first harvest we've been producing authentic, usually fully-dry white wines that reflect the year, the varieties and the “terroir”. Our wines are exclusively from our own single-vineyard grapes. You can order online>> by the case, including mixed cases.

Our wines are of international standard, with silverware going back 20 years. This year we were thrilled to win a sought-after silver medal in the prestigious International Wine Challenge and a bronze in the Decanter World Wine Awards. Each new vintage is eagerly awaited by our many regular customers.   Learn more about our wines >> and check out current releases and prices>>. List of our Awards here >>.

We're on a warm, sheltered, gentle SE slope between the Quantock Hills and the Bristol Channel coast, an early site that gives us harvests of consistently good quality from what are now venerable old vines. Want to learn more about Oatley? Try the About>> page.

We love to welcome interested visitors and show off our wines and vineyard. It's a peaceful spot to while away an hour or bring a picnic. Visiting and tasting are free and you can buy wine by the glass, bottle and case. Find out more on our Visit>> page. We're at the Bath & West Show and other local events too >>.
