About Mousehall Country Estate - Distillery and Winery

Mousehall Country Estate is a charming organic vineyard and distillery nestled in the beautiful East Sussex countryside, just a short drive from the village of Hawkhurst. Established in 2019, this relatively young South East winery has quickly established itself as an exciting addition to England's burgeoning wine scene. Set against the backdrop of the Kent and Sussex Weald, Mousehall Country Estate spans half a hectare of carefully tended vineyards, demonstrating that exceptional English wine can emerge from modest-sized estates.

The vineyard focuses on classic Champagne variety grapes, cultivating Chardonnay, Pinot Meunier, and Pinot Noir across its organically managed plots. These grape varieties are perfectly suited to the cool, maritime-influenced climate of South East England, and Mousehall Country Estate harnesses their potential to produce wines that reflect the unique terroir of the High Weald area. The estate's commitment to organic viticulture means that their vines are grown without synthetic pesticides or herbicides, allowing the natural character of the East Sussex landscape to shine through in every bottle.

Beyond winemaking, Mousehall Country Estate operates as a working distillery, adding another dimension to its agricultural heritage. Visitors to this East Sussex destination can explore the estate's facilities and learn about both the winemaking and distilling processes during their visit. The team at Mousehall is passionate about sharing their knowledge and welcoming guests to experience the peaceful rural setting where their spirits and wines are crafted.

As a publicly accessible UK vineyard, Mousehall Country Estate offers an intimate and authentic experience for wine enthusiasts and curious visitors alike. Whether you are exploring the South East's wine routes or simply seeking a memorable day out in the Sussex countryside, this estate provides an accessible and personal window into contemporary English wine production.
