Sussex

Sussex is a county in the southeast of England, known for its picturesque countryside, historic towns, and growing wine industry. The region has a long history of agriculture, but it was not until the late 20th century that the production of wine began to take off. Today, Sussex is home to a number of award-winning wineries, producing a range of high-quality still and sparkling wines.

The main grapes grown in Sussex are Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier, which are used to produce both still and sparkling wines. The region is particularly known for its sparkling wines, which are made using the traditional method, similar to that used in Champagne. Sussex also produces a range of still wines, including white, red, and rosé styles.

Sussex is home to the oldest commercial vineyard in England, Bolney Wine Estate, which was established in 1972. The region is also known for its use of the traditional method for producing sparkling wines, which involves a second fermentation in the bottle, similar to the method used in Champagne.
