England’s Sparkling Wine Pioneer
Founded in 1988 in West Sussex, Nyetimber is widely regarded as one of the pioneers of premium English sparkling wine.
Crafted exclusively from estate-grown grapes across carefully selected vineyards in Southern England, Nyetimber's wines are produced using the traditional method and have earned international acclaim for their elegance, precision, and distinctive sense of place.
Combining exceptional terroir, meticulous vineyard management, and extended ageing, Nyetimber has become a benchmark for world-class sparkling wine.
Classic Cuvée (Multi-Vintage)
Nyetimber's signature flagship wine and the definitive expression of the estate. Crafted from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier, this multi-vintage cuvée harmoniously blends the finest vineyard parcels across several years.
Delicate aromas of green apple, citrus zest, and toasted brioche lead to a refined palate with creamy texture, vibrant freshness, and remarkable balance.
Rosé (Multi-Vintage)
A beautifully poised sparkling rosé, dominated by Chardonnay and enhanced by carefully selected red wine from mature Pinot Noir vines.
Its delicate salmon hue introduces expressive notes of wild strawberries, raspberries, and subtle pastry spices, supported by a lively acidity and elegant finish.
Blanc de Blancs
A pure and sophisticated expression of Chardonnay. Sourced from select vineyard parcels planted on free-draining chalk soils, this wine displays remarkable precision and depth.
Intense citrus, white blossom, and mineral notes are complemented by subtle hints of toast and a long, focused finish.
Cuvée Chérie Demi-Sec
England's first Demi-Sec Blanc de Blancs and one of Nyetimber's most distinctive creations. Produced exclusively from Chardonnay grown on sun-exposed slopes, it balances natural freshness with delicate sweetness.
Layers of honey, mandarin orange, and candied lemon peel create a vibrant and versatile sparkling wine.
Tillington Single Vineyard
Produced only in exceptional vintages, Tillington is Nyetimber's most exclusive single-vineyard expression. Sourced from a celebrated parcel in West Sussex, it captures the unique character of its Greensand terroir.
Rich yet precise, it reveals notes of ripe apple, peach, toasted nuts, and praline, underpinned by exceptional complexity and structure.
1086 Prestige Cuvée & 1086 Rosé
Named after the year the estate was first recorded in the Domesday Book, the 1086 collection represents the pinnacle of Nyetimber's winemaking.
Crafted only from the estate's most exceptional vineyard parcels and aged for up to a decade before release, these rare prestige cuvées combine extraordinary depth, silky texture, remarkable concentration, and a finish of exceptional length and elegance.
