“Known as one of the finest sparkling wines the world has to offer, Nyetimber is grown and pressed here in our very own British back garden (West Sussex to be precise)… Pale and golden in colour, Nyetimber has a light citrus aroma with floral hints. It also has a delicious flavour reminiscent of toast and vanilla – what’s not to love?

“Nyetimber 1086 Rosé 2010  ‘Made from Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes – all estate-grown in West Sussex – the 2010 Rosé is packed with floral and red fruit aromas. With wonderful progression and great balance between fruit and structure, this English sparkling has nothing to envy to the best of Champagne.”

Nyetimber 2013 Tillington: Elegance, finesse and subtle power form a disarming trinity that convinces with sheer quality

CCMV: “Uncork a fabulous sparkling wine from England’s pioneering producer. Nyetimber’s husband and wife team Brad and Spriggs Greatrix were the first producers of sparkling wine in England—over 30 years ago—and continue to lead in both quality and style. This bottling shows a creamy mouthfeel with notes of brioche, baked apple and lemon cream.”

1086 VINTAGE 2010: The energetic tension that the 2010 vintage brings ensures this wine has a very long life ahead, and the balance between richness and fruit purity is an absolute triumph.

Tillington Single Vineyard 2013: “this wine has come of age and is quite majestic delivering the finest ever from Nyetimber. The delicate clusters of micro bubbles that dance in the glass as elegantly as Swan Lake, there is a taste spectrum of the finest Michelin Star desserts on the palate, crème brulee, macaroons, strawberries, tangerine and all-so-delicate shortbread.”

In Iconic Life, USA, Dena Roché writes, ‘the oldest and arguably the best, Nyetimber is the gold standard of English bubbles’.

“The wines of Nyetimber Winery in West Sussex rank amongst the very best in sparkling wines. This pure Chardonnay develops a delicate floral note in the nose, paired with aromas of white peach, Grannie Smith apples and a smidgen of mint. It is vivacious, crisp and very dynamic on the palate. The perfect sparkling wine for those looking for a lean, yet lush wine which exudes freshness from first drop to last.”

“Nyetimber have impressed connoisseurs the world over, creating top-notch sparkling wines using Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier grapes – all grown across Sussex, Hampshire and Kent. At this year’s International Wine Challenge, no fewer than three of its wines were awarded gold medals.”

“One of the original English sparkling wine producers and still one of the best, Nyetimber make wine from their own vineyards across Sussex, Hampshire and Kent. This is their flagship wine, a non-vintage — or multi-vintage as they prefer to call it — blend of the three classic champagne grapes (Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier) including some older ‘reserve’ wines to add weight and flavour. It’s an absolute delight.”
