West Sussex sits on a sweep of greensand and chalk geologically continuous with the Champagne region across the Channel. The cool maritime climate gives a long, slow growing season — the foundation of every Nyetimber wine.

Selected parcels of Pinot Noir blended with Chardonnay and a small portion of Pinot Meunier. Extended lees aging gives the wine its gastronomic structure.
