ABOUT NYETIMBER The Nyetimber Estate is situated in West Chiltington, West Sussex and dates back to at least 1086, when it was recorded in the Domesday Book. In 1988, Nyetimber pioneered the style of English Sparkling Wine we know today by planting the first Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier vines in England purely for the production of traditional method sparkling wines. Over the years, Nyetimber has won countless awards and accolades at international tastings and competitions. Their Head Winemaker, Cherie Spriggs, was named 'Sparkling Winemaker of the Year' at the International Wine Challenge in 2018 – she was the first person outside of Champagne and the first-ever woman to be awarded this prestigious title. Nyetimber sparkling wines are crafted using only the finest estate-grown, hand-picked grapes. Today they own 327 hectares of vineyards across 11 sites around West Sussex, Hampshire and Kent – all are south-facing, sheltered from the coastal weather and consist of greensand or chalk soils. NYETIMBER WINES Classic Cuvee: The signature wine of Nyetimber, a perfect balance of elegance and intensity. The blend includes varieties from all of their vineyards and multiple vintages. Pairs particularly well with smoked salmon or an asparagus and goat’s cheese quiche. Blanc de Blancs: Crafted from a single vintage and given extended time on lees, this pure expression of chardonnay was the first style ever produced at Nyetimber and marked the start of their pioneering journey. Perfect with white crab tart. Rosé: A wine perfect for all seasons, Nyetimber Rosé is crafted from their three celebrated grape varieties but at its heart is a celebration of the fresh red fruit character of Pinot Noir. Cuvee Chérie: The first of its kind launched in England, Nyetimber’s Cuvee Chérie demi-sec masterfully balances sweetness and acidity. The ideal accompaniment to afternoon tea or light, fruity desserts such as lemon posset or tarte Tatin. ‘As a pioneer of English Sparkling Wine, Nyetimber are delighted to be the official English sparkling wine partner to Glyndebourne, an institution whose dedication to creativity, excellence and innovation are integral to their ongoing success.’ Nyetimber’s owner and CEO, Eric Heerema Contact Us Help Accessibility Work for Us Terms & Conditions Privacy Policy Login Register By continuing to use this site you consent to the use of cookies on your device as described in our cookie policy unless you have disabled them.
