English wine: time to branch out beyond sparkling whites?
Explore the good reds, pretty rosés and classy chardonnays made across the country – at home or with a vineyard visit
If you live anywhere near a British vineyard, you may already be aware that it’s English Wine Week – you may even have been to visit one, given that there are now nearly 800 in the UK. And not just in the south-east, either. Although that region does account for almost two-thirds of all planting, grapes are grown all over the country these days – even as far north as Yorkshire.
The big story in English wine over the past few years has, of course, been sparkling wine, which accounts for 72% of all production, but thanks to an exceptionally good harvest in 2018, there are now also some remarkably good reds, pretty rosés, seriously burgundian chardonnays and even natural wines.
