English sparkling wine sales up 188% from last year

English sparkling wine is expected to be among the drinks of choice as the nation celebrates this Christmas and New Year. Sales of English sparkling wine rocketed in 2015 with one leading supermarket reporting a year-on-year increase of 188 per cent. New figures published by Waitrose revealed that customers were buying 80 per cent more English wine than they did last year.

It comes after renowned French Champagne house Taittinger confirmed it had bought land in Kent and was to make history by producing an English sparkling wine.

Waitrose, which stocks over 100 English and Welsh wines, has a market share of 60 per cent of English wine sales, compared to an overall market share for wine of just 7.7 per cent. Pierpaolo Petrassi, head of wine buying at the supermarket, said: “Sales of English sparkling wine at Waitrose are up 188 per cent year on year, and we know that our customers will enjoy celebrating this Christmas and New Year with a glass of English sparkling wine.”

He added that the organisation had launched the second vintage of its own brut – made from grapes grown at its vineyard in Hampshire – and had been forced to increase the number of bottles it made to meet demand.

Confidence that England has become one of the world’s fastest-rising wine regions was bolstered by confirmation last week of Champagne Taittinger’s investment in the country.

Pierre-Emmanuel Taittinger, president of the renowned champagne house, told The Telegraph that the move was “symbolic” as it was the first time a Champagne name had invested in Great Britain.

“We’re doing it in a spirit of great friendship and because we believe we can produce a great sparkling wine in your great country,” he said.

Historia

Ever since the very first vines were planted Nyetimber has had a single aim: to make the finest English sparkling wine there is. With geography, climate, passion and determination on our side, we knew we could rival the best in the world, including Champagne.

The Nyetimber estate counts three major landmarks in its history. Its earliest beginnings saw it first recorded in the Domesday Book in 1086. Then there was the planting of the first vines, almost exactly 900 years later. Most recently, there was the decision in 2006 that Nyetimber wines deserved an audience on the world stage.

Nyetimber is in the fortunate position to own one hundred percent of our vineyards and all of our wines are produced from the 152 hectares we have planted at the best sites in West Sussex and Hampshire. Nyetimber’s vineyards were the first to be devoted exclusively to the holy trinity of Champagne grapes: chardonnay, pinot meunier and pinot noir.

A millennium might have passed since our name was coined as ‘Nitimbreha’, likely referring to a newly timbered house or perhaps a small timber plantation. But the most significant developments for this House have taken place in a single decade with our winemaking team among the most proficient in the world.

Viiniviljelykset

Southern England is perfect for the production of sparkling wine. The chalk seam that supplies Champagne grapes with the perfect green sand and chalky soil to flourish is the very same that runs under the lee of the South Downs. This is where, sheltered from the coastal winds, our vines are planted across eight separate sites.

The climate here allows for the slow ripening of our grapes, allowing us to achieve the optimum level of acidity for the wine, as well as the complexity and finesse that we strive for.

Unlike most other Houses, at Nyetimber we use only our own grapes from our own vineyards. Prior to harvest, the grapes are tasted to ensure the best flavour development before picking. And if they aren’t up to standard? We simply won’t use them.

Viinivalmistus

Our winemaker, Cherie Spriggs, is central to every decision that gets made. She assesses each and every handpicked vineyard individually. This means choosing the optimal time to harvest the grapes, and supervising their gentle pressing and eventual vinification in stainless steel tanks. This level of intimacy allows us to make the most informed blending decisions the following spring.

We craft all our wines at Nyetimber according to the traditional method, aging them for extended periods of time and giving the bottles sufficient post-disgorgement time before release. Since each and every decision along the way has an impact on the eventual flavour of our wines, we are careful to do everything ourselves, in the way we believe it should be done.

Sisäpiiritietoa

Cherie is our chief winemaker. While she has vast experience producing quality wines all over the world, Cherie was drawn to Nyetimber many years ago while still living in Canada. Cherie’s training included postgraduate studies at the Wine Research Center in Vancouver, and subsequently at Adelaide University. She worked in McLaren Vale and the Hunter Valley in Australia, Central Otago in New Zealand, Oregon and on Vancouver Island before joining Nyetimber with her husband Brad in 2007.
