Georgie, Tom, Will, Sandra and Peter Carlisle decided five years ago to diversity their farm due to the warming climate.
But before a vine even went in to the ground in West Ilsley, Berkshire, they had to monitor the weather across the farm for three years to find the perfect spot.
Their vineyard now spans 6.5 hectares, the equivalent of 10 football pitches.
Once it is in full production the family hope to produce 100 tonnes of grapes a year, which equates to approximately 100,000 bottles of wine.
