About Wiston Estate
Wiston Estate is a renowned vineyard and winery located in the picturesque South Downs of West Sussex, UK. Established with a vision to produce high-quality sparkling wines, Wiston Estate has quickly gained recognition for its exceptional craftsmanship and commitment to sustainability.
The estate spans over 100 acres, with a significant portion dedicated to the cultivation of traditional grape varieties such as Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier. These grapes are meticulously grown in the estate’s chalky soils, which are ideal for producing premium sparkling wines.
At Wiston Estate, the winemaking process is a blend of traditional methods and modern techniques. The estate employs a hands-on approach, ensuring that each bottle reflects the unique terroir of the region.
