About Trewince Estates Vineyard

Trewince Estates Vineyard is a dedicated wine producer situated in the picturesque county of Essex within the East Anglia region of England. Located near the postcode CM3 6HF, this vineyard represents a significant investment in English wine production, with approximately 16.99 hectares under vine. The estate was established in 2017, making it a relatively young venture in the growing English wine industry, yet one that has quickly developed a reputation for serious winemaking.

The vineyard has carefully selected a diverse range of grape varieties to cultivate across its plantings. The portfolio includes classic sparkling wine staples such as Chardonnay, Pinot Meunier, and Pinot Noir, which are particularly well suited to the English climate and are the same varieties that have made English sparkling wine famous worldwide. These are complemented by an interesting selection of aromatic and cool climate white varieties including Auxerrois, Muscat, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris, Riesling, and Sauvignon Blanc.

Trewince Estates Vineyard also demonstrates a commitment to ongoing innovation through its trial plantings of additional varieties. This experimental approach allows the winemaking team to assess which grapes perform best in the local terroir and microclimate, potentially expanding the estate portfolio in future vintages. The inclusion of Pinot Noir from Burgundian clones suggests a specific focus on producing high quality still wines alongside any sparkling offerings.
