Presented in a luxury Highweald gift box, this limited-release Chardonnay offers a truly special way to share the elegance of our Lakestreet Vineyard. Grown on clay-loam slopes in the sheltered heart of Sussex, the slow-ripened fruit captures the vineyard’s purity and precision, opening with aromas of peach, apricot, lime blossom, and a subtle hint of cedar.

On the palate, the wine is smooth, fresh, and beautifully balanced — refined rather than showy, with a clean, fruit-led character shaped by 12 months in seasoned French barriques. Bottled unfined and unfiltered, it delivers the craft, clarity, and quiet sophistication that define Highweald winemaking — a gift of genuine provenance and exceptional quality.

Provenance & Craftmanship

Highweald wines begin in our exceptional Sussex vineyards, where cool-climate conditions and ancient soils shape the purity and precision of our fruit. Every vine is hand-tended, and every grape is harvested at peak ripeness to capture the character of our land.

In the winery, traditional methods meet meticulous craft. Small-batch fermentations, careful blending, and patient ageing allow each wine to develop balance, elegance, and depth. From vine to bottle, our focus is simple: uncompromising quality and an authentic expression of Highweald terroir.

Committed to our sustainable vision, we are active members of Sustainable Wines of Britain.

Aroma

Peach · Apricot · Lime blossom

Soft stone-fruit aromas of ripe peach and apricot are lifted by a delicate “lift” of lime blossom and subtle cedar - a reflection of the cool Sussex soils and gentle ridge-side breezes of our Lakestreet Vineyard.

Palate

Bright · Elegant · Mouth-filling

The wine opens with bright, clean fruit on the palate - fresh orchard and stone fruit - while a smooth, rounded mid-palate carries a subtle mineral edge from our Sussex terroir. The result is refined elegance, with enough body and freshness to remain wonderfully balanced and approachable.

Finish

Crisp · Balanced · Lingering

A crisp, refreshing finish that lingers with gentle fruit and mineral clarity - clean and poised, with the acidity carrying through and leaving a bright, lasting impression.

“Grown on the ridge of the Lakestreet Vineyard, in the sheltered rain-shadow of Crowborough Hill, this Chardonnay expresses the unique reflectivity of Sussex terroir. The cool climate and clay-loam soils coax a purity and tension in the fruit - delivering a wine of subtlety, clarity and English character that rewards patience and care."
