It is unlikely the drivers heard the Nyetimber corks popping last weekend over the sound of their Formula 1 engines, but popping they were as Nyetimber celebrated this sporting highlight of the year, raising a glass just a stone’s throw away from the Grand Prix racetrack in Monaco.
Guests of Nyetimber, UBS and Chopard were treated to several days of lavish hospitality and high-octane motorsport as the sun beamed down on the likes of Lewis Hamilton, Jenson Button and victorious Sebastian Vettel.
It was a wonderful opportunity to celebrate one of the world’s most high-profile sporting events of the year, and to introduce a whole new group of excited wine lovers to the finest wines made in England.
