Richard Shipp
Runs sales and promotion and is the first point of contact for orders, trade and events. Just about managing director, by his own account: delegating, cowboy DIY repairs and holding onto stress.
Meet the Team
Eight people (and one dog) run the winery, bistro and nursery between them. Richard is the first point of contact for most enquiries.
