English Sparkling Wine: Elegant, Traditional Method Bubbles from Sussex

Why England Makes Great Sparkling Wine

The secret lies beneath the vines. The chalky soils of Sussex and southern England are part of the very same seam that runs under Champagne, split apart when the Channel formed.

Add a cool climate that lets the grapes ripen slowly, holding on to their racy acidity, and you have the perfect recipe for elegant, age worthy sparkling wine.

Today English sparkling regularly holds its own against Champagne in blind tastings, a remarkable rise for such a young wine region.

Our English Sparkling Selection

Our range is built around Nyetimber, England's benchmark producer, crafting sparkling wine of real class from its West Sussex vineyards.

Look for its classic cuvée, all citrus, brioche and fine bubbles, alongside a beautiful sparkling rosé bursting with red berry charm.

These are dry, brut style sparklers, elegant and food friendly, made to celebrate any occasion.

How to Serve English Sparkling Wine

Serve well chilled, around 6 to 8 degrees, in a white wine glass or flute. A tulip shaped glass helps capture all its delicate aromas.

Food Pairing Ideas

English sparkling is a wonderful aperitif, and a natural with fresh oysters, smoked salmon and creamy cheeses. It is also lovely with fish and chips, a very British treat.

English Sparkling Wine vs Champagne

The two have a great deal in common. Both use the same three grapes, the same traditional method and even the same chalky soils, so the family resemblance is real.

English sparkling tends to be a touch fresher and more bracing, thanks to England's cooler climate, with vivid green apple and citrus notes.

If you love a crisp glass of Champagne, England's finest fizz is a thrilling next discovery.
