The Nyetimber Story For over 35 years, Nyetimber has had a single aim: to make the finest English Sparkling Wine, one to rival the very best in the world. A true pioneer, Nyetimber was the first producer in England to grow the three celebrated grape varieties: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier, exclusively for sparkling wine. Our vineyards share many of the characteristics found in the world’s finest sparkling wine regions. Greensand and chalk soils allow our vines to flourish across the South of England, where the mild climate supports the slow ripening of our grapes, achieving the optimum levels of sweetness and acidity. By using only estate-grown grapes from our own vineyards, we ensure that only the finest fruit is selected for our Nyetimber wines. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail following the traditional method, our wines are aged for extended periods of time to build depth, complexity and elegance
