About Carr Taylor
In 1969, David Carr Taylor’s vision became reality when he planted a vineyard on his East Sussex family estate. The inaugural harvest in 1976 yielded 2,000 bottles, marking the beginning of Carr Taylor’s success. Over four decades, we’ve cultivated a reputation for excellence, earning over 150 international awards. Our unique terroir, sheltered by the Hastings Ridge and benefiting from the Gulf Stream, allows us to produce crisp, aromatic wines with flavors echoing local fruits like green apple and pear.
Our vineyard’s gentle slope, low altitude, and clay loam soils create an ideal environment. We’ve adapted German viticulture research to thrive in England’s cool climate. Our Geneva Double Curtain trellising system optimizes yields and minimizes frost damage. As pioneers in English winemaking, we’ve evolved, replanting with Bacchus, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Blanc. Our rustic winery, converted from 100-year-old stables, houses state-of-the-art equipment.
From harvesting to bottling, every step is taken on-site to preserve the natural flavors. Our passion for winemaking shines through in every bottle. Visit us and taste the essence of East Sussex. Join the Carr Taylor family on a journey through the rolling hills, vineyards, and winemaking traditions that make our wines truly special.

Albury Estate Blanc de Blancs (6 Bottles) Guildford, Surrey, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
This Chardonnay and Seyval Blanc based sparkling wine is quintessentially English; an English garden in a glass! Aromas of freshly picked pears, apples, garden herbs and a touch of gooseberry that's accentuated on the palate, accompanied by a slight floral character that lingers on the finish. Ideal for drinking on its own, but with enough crisp acidity to pair well with foods such as smoked fish, a cheese starter (try a goat's cheese salad) or garden picnic.
Artelium Blank Canvas 2021 (6 Bottles) Streat, East Sussex, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
A delicious, intentionally accessible style of wine with fruit purity at the fore. Those seeking layers of complexity will find them in the subtle minerality and refreshing acid structure that holds the wine together so well.
Pinot Gris offers all the elegance, fine-bubble texture and finesse of Artelium’s core range, but the use of Pinot Gris rather than the traditional varieties gives this wine a pear, peach and soft-citrus profile that is easy to drink and ever so moreish!
Black Chalk Paragon Sparkling White 2020 (6 Bottles) Andover, Hampshire, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
100% Chardonnay.
A sparkling wine of unparalleled elegance, Paragon Blanc de Blancs showcases the purest expression of Chardonnay from the Upper Levels vineyard. Made exclusively from premium clones (95, 121, 76, and 131), this limited release of just 3,535 bottles is a testament to meticulous craftsmanship.
On the nose, bright citrus aromas intertwine with delicate floral notes and a whisper of toasted almond, hinting at its partial oak cask aging (46%) alongside stainless steel (54%). The absence of malolactic fermentation preserves the vibrant acidity (8.8g/L), complemented by a touch of residual sugar (5.9g/L) that enhances the wine’s texture without compromising its finesse.
On the palate, Paragon is a symphony of precision and complexity. The wine delivers crisp green apple, lemon zest, and a chalky minerality, rounded by a subtle creaminess from oak influence. The finish is long and refreshing, with a delicate interplay of fruit, acidity, and structure that invites another sip.
As Jacob Leadley, winemaker and owner, describes: “Paragon is all about the subtle use of oak, chosen to provide a balance to the elegance and fruit profile of the Chardonnay.”
Perfect for those seeking a sparkling wine that marries sophistication with depth. Ideal for celebrations or pairing with fine seafood and soft cheeses.
