About

Hambledon Vineyard, the UK's oldest commercial vineyard, is nestled within the gentle slopes of the South Downs National Park. Dating back to 1952, the vineyard has produced wines for the Houses of Parliament, QE2 and for numerous British Embassies around the world. Today, the vineyard specialises in English sparkling wine, having been bought by oenologist Ian Kellett in 1999. It now stretches over 50 acres and produces its own speciality sparkling wine made using a blend of Chardonnay (40%), Pinot Meunier (31%) and Pinot Noir (29%).

Hambledon Vineyard runs regular tours throughout the year, to showcase its unique gravity-fed, state of the art winery. On each tour, Hambledon's friendly and experienced staff will explain the processes involved...Read More
