South-facing slopes · Ancient clay & sandstone soils · Elevated cool-climate precision
Highweald Vineyard
Set across rolling Sussex ridgelines, Highweald Vineyard benefits from clay-rich soils, excellent natural drainage, and long, even sunlight - conditions that allow Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier to ripen slowly and develop purity of flavour.
The elevation and cooling breezes preserve acidity, giving the estate’s sparkling wines their hallmark freshness, structure, and finesse. Sustainable vineyard practices and a thriving ecosystem of wildflowers, bees, birds and bats shape a site where fruit can mature cleanly and express its full character.
Sheltered ridge site · Clay-loam soils · Slow-ripening fruit with clarity and finesse
Lake Street Vineyard
Sheltered in the rain-shadow of Crowborough Hill, Lakestreet’s clay-loam and sandstone soils create an ideal environment for Chardonnay. Here, the vines develop concentration and a bright, mineral core, supported by natural protection from wind and excess rainfall.
The site’s south-facing exposure and slower ripening season allow nuanced flavours - stone fruit, blossom and subtle spice - to emerge with clarity. Meticulous hand-tending and gentle, sustainable farming give this vineyard its reputation for precision and elegance in Highweald’s still wines.
Chalk-rich terroir · Flint-topped, free-draining soils · Slow, cool ripening for purity & finesse
Alder Ridge Vineyard
Set on the chalky slopes of the North Wessex Downs, Alder Ridge Vineyard benefits from south-facing aspects, free-draining chalk soils and long, gentle sunlight - conditions that allow Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Pinot Précoce to ripen slowly and develop clarity and elegance of flavour.
The elevation and cool breezes help preserve acidity, giving the estate’s sparkling wines their hallmark freshness and fine mineral character. Surrounded by wildflowers, birds and thriving biodiversity, the vineyard’s sustainable practices nurture fruit that matures cleanly and expresses the true character of this unique chalkland site.
