About

Nyetimber, founded in 1988 in West Sussex, is the UK's most-decorated sparkling-wine producer — the first English wine to beat Champagne in blind tasting (1998), repeatedly named the world's best sparkling wine. The estate covers 405 acres of chalk south-coast terroir, and tastings at the medieval moated manor are a destination for wine tourism.
