Nyetimber
For 37 years, Nyetimber has had one single aim: crafting exceptional English sparkling wine that rivals the very best in the world.
Location: West Sussex, Hampshire, Kent
Varietals: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier
A true pioneer, Nyetimber was the first producer of English sparkling wine to exclusively grow the three celebrated grape varieties: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier. Regarded by many as England's finest sparkling wine, Nyetimber is made from one hundred percent estate-grown grapes.
Owner and CEO Eric Heerema acquired Nyetimber in 2006 and is the visionary and driving force behind Nyetimber today. Eric works with Head Winemaker Cherie Spriggs and Senior Winemaker Brad Greatrix to produce wine of extraordinary elegance and quality. Cherie Spriggs was named 'Sparkling Winemaker of the Year' at the International Wine Challenge 2018; the first person to win this award outside of Champagne, and still the only woman to win this prestigious award.
Nyetimber has 11 vineyards spanning 425 hectares in West Sussex, Hampshire, and Kent and is served in some of the most renowned venues in the UK, including The Savoy, Scott’s Mayfair, The Ivy, as well as around the world, including Ritz Carlton Berlin, Ciel Bleu in Amsterdam, Maaemo in Oslo, Franzen in Stockholm, The Edition Tokyo, Jumeirah Zabeel Saray Dubai and many more.
In 2024, Nyetimber acquired the leading English single malt whisky producer, The Lakes Distillery, marking an important new chapter in the journey to becoming a globally recognised, English luxury drinks group. The two brands share a passion for creating the highest quality drinks and the ambition of The Nyetimber Group is to continue setting the standard for quality and luxury within the industry.
