Recommended by James Davis, Master of Wine – one of the most accomplished professionals in the wine business:
"English sparkling wine has come of age and is now a world class contender for greatness. Bolney Estate Classic Cuvée is right up at the top of the league table of English fizzes, and one of the best wines Bolney produces. A lovely, soft yet intense core of lemon fruit that is backed up by some delightful elderflower and honeyed flavours. Lots of freshness and zest, but also some brioche complexity. Great with a plate of olives and fresh bread".

Bolney Wine Estates is considered as one of the pioneers of the English wine industry, with 50 years of experience under its belt. Located in the heart of rural Sussex, the first vines were planted in 1972 by Rodney and Janet Pratt, the parents of Sam Linter who now heads up the family business.
Half a century later, Sam, together with her expert team, work throughout the year to ensure the vines are perfectly tended to yield the highest quality grapes. Bolney now produces an array of award-winning red, white, rosé and sparkling English wines.
The winery won UK Wine Producer of the Year in the International Wine and Spirit Competition in 2012. Since then, it was also presented with the title of Winery of the Year 2017 at the UK Wine Awards.
The estate has continues to invest in specialist machinery and, in 2019, it opened a new state-of-the-art winery. With the ethos “Guided by Nature since 1972”, sustainability is at the heart of the winery’s operations. This includes practicing responsible waste management, installing solar panels on the winery’s roof and using bottles that are 100% recyclable.
