“At Winemakers Rock, we’re rewriting the rules. We fuse old-world winemaking with planet-first thinking and bold branding—proving premium wine doesn’t need to cost the Earth. The future of wine is sustainable, rebellious, and unapologetically real.”
— James Wood c-2024

Who we are.

Meet James Wood—the Yorkshire-born force behind Winemakers Rock. A seasoned winemaker, brand builder, and straight-talking creative with over 30 years in the wine game, James doesn’t just make wine—he reimagines it.

From the vineyards of France to the bars of Brixton, he’s spent decades crafting and curating wines that punch well above their weight. Now, he’s shaking up the rules—bringing bold, premium European wines to market without the faff or the inflated price tags. Think quality in the bottle, not smoke and mirrors on the label.

James’s approach is refreshingly direct: ditch the bloated supply chains, bottle smarter, and cut the middlemen out of the party. By importing in bulk and bottling locally, he’s slashing unnecessary costs, reducing the carbon footprint, and delivering wines that taste good and do good.

But this isn’t just a clever business model—it’s a movement. In a world that’s demanding sustainability, transparency, and a bit more soul in what they sip, James and Winemakers Rock are leading the charge. No fluff. No pretence. Just wine that rocks.
